Inheritance

C++ supports six types of inheritance: single, multilevel, multiple, hierarchical, hybrid, and multipath inheritance. The document provides definitions and examples for each type, including code snippets for single and multipath inheritance. It illustrates how derived classes can inherit properties from base classes and demonstrates the use of virtual inheritance.

C++ supports six types of inheritance as follows:

 Single Inheritance
 Multilevel Inheritance
 Multiple Inheritance
 Hierarchical Inheritance
 Hybrid Inheritance
 Multipath Inheritance

A derived class with only one base class is called single inheritance.

A derived class with one base class and that base class is a derived class of another is
called multilevel inheritance.

A derived class with multiple base class is called multiple inheritance.


Multiple derived classes with same base class is called hierarchical inheritance.

Combination of multiple and hierarchical inheritance is called hybrid inheritance.

A derived class with two base classes and these two base classes have one common base
class is called multipath inheritance.
