What are some examples of inheritance in Python?

Inheritance in Python allows a class to inherit attributes and methods from another class. For example, if you have a base class Animal and a derived class Dog, the Dog class can inherit properties from Animal.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

class Animal:
    def speak(self):
        return "Animal speaks"

class Dog(Animal):
    def speak(self):
        return "Woof!"

my_dog = Dog()
print(my_dog.speak())  # Output: Woof!

What if I want to add more features to the Dog class?

You can easily add more methods or attributes to the Dog class. For instance:

class Dog(Animal):
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    def speak(self):
        return f"{self.name} says Woof!"

my_dog = Dog("Buddy")
print(my_dog.speak())  # Output: Buddy says Woof!
