Understanding Inheritance and Different Types of Inheritance

Inheritance is a mechanism of acquiring the features and behaviors of a class by another class. The class whose members are inherited is called the base class, and the class that inherits those members is called the derived class. Inheritance implements the IS-A relationship.

For example, mammal IS-A animal, dog IS-A mammal; Hence dog IS-A animal as well.

Inheritance is one of the core aspects of the fundamental called Object-Oriented Programming (OOPs) and if we need to describe then inheritance is that it provides the way of achieving code re-usability were writing the same code the multiple times, again and again, rather we can use inherit a version of the given properties of one class into the other by extending it. We will learn each type of inheritance in this article
