The document discusses different types of inheritance in object-oriented programming. Inheritance allows a new class to inherit attributes and behaviors from an existing class. The main types covered are single inheritance, where one derived class inherits from one base class; multiple inheritance, where a class inherits from more than one base class; hierarchical inheritance, where a derived class inherits from another derived class; and multilevel inheritance, where multiple levels of inheritance exist from a single base class. Hybrid inheritance combines multiple inheritance techniques.

2.  The technique of driving a new class from an old
class is called inheritance.

The old class is referred to as base class and the
new class is referred to as derived class or sub
class.

3. Single Inheritance.
Multiple Inheritance.
Hierarchical Inheritance.
Multilevel Inheritance.
Hybrid/Virtual Inheritance.

4.  In Single inheritance there is only one base
class and one derived class.
SYNTAX:
Class derived class : Public base class;
Example:
A
B

5.  When one derived class is inherited from more
than one base class is called Multiple
inheritance.
Example:
A B
C

6.  In this type of inheritance a derived class is
created from another derived class.
Example:
A
B
C

7.  In this type of inheritance more than one
derived class is inherited from a single base
class.
Example: A
B C
D E F G

8.  Hybrid inheritance is implemented by
combining more than one type of inheritance.
Example:
A
B C
D
E F
