Inheritance is an important pillar of oops. By using this property in C# we can use all features from the base class in any other classes. We can reuse the code by using inheritance.

Some important things about inheritance: -

  • When we have to do inherit any class then we use " : " (colon)
  • Syntax: - class <derived class name> : <base class name>
  • We cannot inherit the private members, function, methods, etc.
  • The class whose features are inherited is known as a super class (or a base class or a parent class)
  • The class that inherits the other class is known as sub class (or a derived class, extended class, or child class) 
Code: -

using System;  

   public class Employee  

    {  

       public float salary = 40000;  

   }  

   public class Programmer: Employee  

   {  

       public float bonus = 10000;  

   }  

   class TestInheritance{  

       public static void Main(string[] args)  

        {  

            Programmer p1 = new Programmer();  

            float Total_Salary= p1.salary+p1.bonus;

            

            Console.WriteLine("Total Salary " + Total_Salary);  

  

        }  

    }  

Code: -

using System; 

namespace om

{



   public class Employee  

    {  

       public float salary = 40000;  

   }  

   public class bonusEmployee: Employee  

   {  

       public float bonus = 10000; 

       public void Get_total()

       {

         float Total= base.salary+bonus;

         Console.WriteLine("Toatal salary {0}", Total);

       }

   }  

   class TestInheritance{  

       public static void Main(string[] args)  

        {  

          bonusEmployee p1 = new bonusEmployee();  

          p1.Get_total();

        }  

    }
