C++ Inheritance - 3

This document discusses C++ single inheritance. In single inheritance, a derived class inherits from one base class in a one-to-one relationship. The derived class inherits public and protected members of the base class depending on the access specifier used. The document provides a diagram illustrating single inheritance and a C++ code example demonstrating a derived class publicly inheriting from a base class and accessing members of both.

If a single class is derived from one base class then it is called single inheritance. In C++ single inheritance
base and derived class exhibit one to one relation.

C++ Single Inheritance Block Diagram

As shown in the gure, in C++ single inheritance only one class can be derived from the base class. Based on
the visibility mode used or access speci er used while deriving, the properties of the base class are derived.
Access speci er can be private, protected or public.

Output

Enter the value of x = 3


Enter the value of y = 4
Product = 12

Explanation

In this program class derive is publicly derived from the base class base . So the class derive inherits all
the protected and public members of base class base i.e the protected and the public members of base
class are accessible from class derive .

However private members can’t be accessed, although, we haven’t used any private data members in the
base class.

With the object of the derived class, we can call the functions of both derived and base class.
