inheritance c++

Inheritance is the ability of one class to inherit the properties of another class. A new class can becreated from an existing class. The existing class iscalled the Base class or Super class and the new class is called the Derived class or Sub-class.e.g:Car inherits from another class auto-mobile.Science student inherits from class student

Advantages of Inheritance:Reusability of code Size of the code is reduced.Transitivity: If B is derived from A and C is derived from B then C is also derived from A.

Visibility ModesIt can be public, private or protected. The private data of base class cannot be inherited.(i) If inheritance is done in public mode, public members of the base class becomethe public members of derived class and protected members of base class become the protected members of derived class.(ii) If inheritance is done in a private mode, public and protected members of base class become the private members of derived class.(iii) If inheritance is done in a protected mode, public and protected members of base class become the protected members of derived class.

Accessibility of Base Class members:
