This lesson explores how to create classes by inheriting from existing classes. In it, you will learn how inheritance promotes software reuse; the notions of base classes and derived classes and the relationships between them; the use of constructors and destructors in inheritance hierarchies; the order in which constructors and destructors are called in inheritance hierarchies; the differences between public, protected and private inheritance; and the use of inheritance to customize existing software.
