Inheritance in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Key Concepts, Benefits, and Practical Examples
Object-Oriented Programming Overview Core Principles: Encapsulation, Abstraction, Inheritance, Polymorphism Focus on Inheritance today Importance of Inheritance: Code Reusability, Efficiency
What is Inheritance? Definition: Inheritance allows a new class to acquire properties and behaviors from an existing class. Example Diagram: Parent and Child classes with arrows indicating inheritance.
Basic Terminology Super/Parent Class: The class whose properties and methods are inherited. Sub/Child Class: The class that inherits from the parent class. "Is-A" Relationship: Describes how the child class relates to the parent (e.g., A Car is a Vehicle).
Why Use Inheritance? Benefits: Code Reusability : Avoids code duplication Maintainability: Centralized code for easier updates Extensibility: Enables new functionality by extending existing classes Real-World Modeling: Reflects hierarchical relationships (e.g., Animal > Dog)
