I get the following error:
Error: java: Shape is not abstract and does not override abstract method 
getPerimeter() in Shape

The text is tailored towards a class that inherits abstract
members, which should then be overridden. But since
Shape does neither extend an other class or implement
an other interface, this is not the real cause.

The real cause here is just the presence of an abstract
member in the class, and not having the modifier abstract
for the class. The error text is a little bit misleading,
not very well chosen.
