What is inheritance?
What do you understand by 'Inheritance'?
Solution 1
Inheritance is one of the most important features of Object-Oriented Programming. In object-oriented programming, inheritance enables a new class and its objects to take on the properties of the existing classes.
Solution 2
The process of deriving a new class from an existing one is known as inheritance. The previous class is referred to as the base class, whereas the new class is known as the derived class. C++ heavily promotes the idea of reusability. Once a class is built and tested, it can be customized by other programmers to meet their needs. This involves developing new classes and reusing old properties. Tested class functions and variables can be accessed by objects from other classes. This is referred to as inheritance.
