<title>Class Abstraction</title>
<para>
PHP has abstract classes and methods.
Classes defined as abstract cannot be instantiated, and any class that
contains at least one abstract method must also be abstract.
Methods defined as abstract simply declare the method's signature;
they cannot define the implementation.
</para>
<para>
When inheriting from an abstract class, all methods marked abstract in
the parent's class declaration must be defined by the child class,
and follow the usual
<link linkend="language.oop5.inheritance">inheritance</link> and
<link linkend="language.oop.lsp">signature compatibility</link> rules.
</para>
