Types of Inheritance

I know basic concepts of Inheritance. But I want to know is there any types of inheritance? If so how many types are available and what are they. Can someone brief me on this.

There are two types of Inheritance. They are namely:
Single Inheritance
Multiple Inheritance
Single Inheritance:
This is one in which derived class has only one direct base class.
Multiple Inheritance:
This is one in which derived class has more than one direct base class.

hi

types of inheritance


single level inheritance eg ( class B extends Class A)

Multilevel inheritance eg( class C extends class B and class B extends class A)
multiple inheritance Class C inherits Class A features as well as Class B featues.This type of inheritance is not allowed in JAVA.

hop this helps u to some extent

bye:)

there are many tpes of inheritence:

single inheritence-one super and one sub class
multiple-many super and one sub class
multi level-the sub class of one level forms the super class of another level
hierarchical- one super and many sub classes
hybrid-multiple and multi level combined.

Thank you friends for your answers.I could get a detailed idea on types of inheritance available.

there 5 types of inheritence
1.singleton inheritence
2.multilevel inheritence
3.hirarchical inheritence
4.hybrid inheritence
5.multiple inheritence

In C++ inheritance can be private or public.
Private inheritance [class A {...}; class B : private A {...};] means that sub-class will inherit only public methods of base class.
Public inheritance [class A {...}; class B : public A {...};] means that sub-class's methods can access protected fields of base class.

There are two types of inheritance used in modern programming languages. C# and other .NET languages use single inheritance. This means that a subclass may only inherit functionality from a single base class.

Multiple inheritance permits a subclass to have two or more superclasses. In this situation the derived class inherits functionality from several base classes. Multiple inheritance is not supported by C# or the .NET framework. However, this does not stop a class from providing many public interfaces as will be seen in a later article.

PLease let me know if i am wrong or missing something

Basically there are two types of inheritances are there.
they are:
single and multiple..
But, actually we had 5 types of inheritances are there.
they are:
single inheritance.
multiple inheritance.
multi-level inheritance.
hybrid inheritance and
multi path inheritance.

inheritance is of 5 types
1.single inheritance:
only one baseclass,and one derived class access memberfunctions,datamembers from it. and derived class can't behave again base class.
2.multilevel inheritance:
eg: base class
l
derived1 class
l
derived2 class
l
derived3 class
.
.
again derived class acts as another base class
3.multiple inheritance:
there are two base classes and one derived class which is derived from both two base classes.
base1 class base2class
derived class
4.hirarchical inheritance:
in this one common base class and derived class and from those another derived classes.
5.hybrid inheritance:
it is a combination of any above inheritance types.
that is either multiple-multilevel
multiple-hirarchical
any other combination

Inheritance are 3 types
1. Multilevel Inheritance
2. Multiple Inheritance
3. cyclic Inheritance

note : - cyclic Inheritance is never used and no programming language support it.

multilevel inheritance

There are 6 types of inheritance viz,
1.Single level inheritance
2.Multiple level inheritance
3.Multilevel inheritance
4.Hybrid inheritance
5.Heirarchial inheritance
6.Multipath inheritance

There are exect five types of Inhertience .

1). Single level Inhertience.
2). multilevel Inhertience.
3). hybrid Inhertience.
4).hierarchical Inhertience.
5).multipal Inhertience.

But multilevel or multipal can be consider the same.

Types of inheritance are 1.single inheritance 2.multiple inheritance 3.multipath inheritance 4.multi level inheritance 5.virtual path inheritance 6.hierarchical inheritance 7.hybrid inheritance

they are single,multiple,hybrid and multilevel types
we can easily get what they mean through it

[QUOTE=scott;1857]I know basic concepts of Inheritance. But I want to know is there any types of inheritance? If so how many types are available and what are they. Can someone brief me on this.[/QUOTE]... plz roly as soon as possible

Thier are 4 type of inheritence ----
1.single level
2.multilevel
3.multiple (in java knn as Interface)
4.Heirarchical
5.Hybrid

C++ has the following inheritanceses single inheritance multiple inheritance multilevel inheritance hybrid inheritacnce,heirarchical inheritace in java has the following inheritances single ,multilevel ,hybrid, java does not support multiple inheritance, but overcomming the above problem using interface

Two types
(1) implementation
(2) interface

Differences in multiplicity and protection level have already been mentioned.

There are two types:
1.Single Inherritance.
2.multiple Inherritance.

difference between multiple and multi level inhearitance

ya hope u no some basic of inheritence .but as i got this prob so i would like to explain it inheritence is the main feature of oops can be say that its the advantage of oops as compared to c++ .as u asked about the type then there are 5 types of inheritence in oops
1 single level
2 multilevel
3 multiple
4 hybrid
5 hierachial

yes their are 4 types of inheritance in OOPS Singal, Multiple,Multilevel,Heirarchical. Single Inheritance is a simple one between two classes. If there are 3 classes 2 child and a parent then it is Multiple. If first class is ingherited by second and second by third then it is Multilevel, and last as name suggests it is heirarchical Inheritance.
If you you want anything else thne go ahead

Multiple Inheritance has one parent class , which may have number of child classes.
Multilevel Inheritace may have number of childs and parents also.
if anything else then go ahead

hello dear


there are five types of inheritance.
1.single inheritance
2.multiple inheritance
3.multilevel inheritance
4.hierarchical inheritance
5.hbrid inheritance

only two types,one base,one derived and one base and multiple derived
