Can you explain what inheritance is in programming?
Inheritance is a fundamental concept in object-oriented programming where a new class can inherit properties and methods from an existing class.
What about polymorphism? How does it relate to inheritance?
Polymorphism allows methods to do different things based on the object it is acting upon, often achieved through inheritance.
Can you give me an example of both inheritance and polymorphism?
Sure! For example, if you have a class 'Animal' and subclasses 'Dog' and 'Cat', 'Dog' and 'Cat' inherit from 'Animal'. Polymorphism allows you to call a method like 'makeSound()' on both subclasses, and they can produce different sounds.
Why is inheritance important in programming?
Inheritance promotes code reusability and helps in organizing code better, making it easier to maintain and extend.
