SINGLE INHERITANCE

Single inheritance is defined as the


inheritance in which a derived class is
inherited from the only one base class.
Where 'A' is the base class, and 'B' is
the derived class.
MULTIPLE INHERITANCE

Multiple inheritance is the process of


deriving a new class that inherits the
attributes from two or more classes.
Where 'A and B' is the base class, and
'C' is the derived class.
MULTILEVEL INHERITANCE

Multilevel inheritance is a process of deriving


a class from another derived class.
HIERARCHICAL INHERITANCE

Hierarchical inheritance is defined as the


process of deriving more than one class from a
base class.
HYBRID INHERITANCE

Hybrid inheritance is a combination


of more than one type of inheritance.
