Derived class or subclass.
Inheritance (or derivation).
It specifies the access level of the base class members in the derived class.
A derived class with only one base class.
The process of combining more than one type of inheritance together while deriving subclasses in a program.
Some or all traits.
Yes.
A derived class with several base classes.
Reusability.
A process where the traits of one class are inherited by more than one class.
Inheritance is a mechanism where a new class extends an existing class.
Members of the derived class can access the private members of the base class, but they are not accessible outside the derived class.
class derived: public base { members of derived };
Base class.
Yes.
The mechanism of deriving a class from another 'derived class'.
A class that is created from another class, inheriting its attributes and methods.
Private derivation.
It allows multiple classes to inherit from a single base class.
class derived-class-name : visibility-mode base-class-name { ………. // members of derived class ………. // };
They are not accessible outside the derived class.
To create a new class that inherits properties and behaviors from an existing class.
To promote code reusability and establish a relationship between classes.
Members of the derived class can access public members of the base class, and they remain accessible outside the derived class.
To inherit properties and behaviors from a base class.
class derived: private base { members of derived };
