1. Introduction

Inheritance is a fundamental concept in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in C++. It allows a class

(derived class) to acquire properties and behaviors (methods) from another class (base class). Inheritance

promotes code reusability and establishes a relationship between classes.

2. Types of Inheritance

C++ supports several types of inheritance:

1. Single Inheritance

2. Multiple Inheritance

3. Multilevel Inheritance

4. Hierarchical Inheritance

5. Hybrid Inheritance

3. Single Inheritance

In single inheritance, a derived class inherits from only one base class.

Example:

class Base {

public:

void show() { cout << "Base class"; }

};

class Derived : public Base {

};

4. Multiple Inheritance

In multiple inheritance, a derived class inherits from more than one base class.

Example:

class A {

public:

void displayA() { cout << "Class A"; }

};

class B {

public:

void displayB() { cout << "Class B"; }

};

class C : public A, public B {

};

5. Multilevel Inheritance

In multilevel inheritance, a class is derived from another derived class.

Example:

class A {

public:

void showA() { cout << "Class A"; }

};

class B : public A {

public:

void showB() { cout << "Class B"; }

};

class C : public B {

public:

void showC() { cout << "Class C"; }

};

6. Hierarchical and Hybrid Inheritance

Hierarchical Inheritance:

Multiple classes inherit from a single base class.

Hybrid Inheritance:

A combination of more than one type of inheritance. It often involves a mix of hierarchical and multiple

inheritance and may require virtual inheritance to resolve ambiguities.

7. Conclusion

Inheritance in C++ is a powerful feature that facilitates code reuse and supports the implementation of

polymorphism. Understanding the various types of inheritance helps in designing robust and scalable

object-oriented systems.
