Basic Example using Hierarchical Inheritance in C++

This program demonstrates the concept of inheritance in C++. It defines three classes: A, B, and C. Class A is the base class, and classes B and C are derived from class A. The program creates an object of class C, and when the object is created, the constructor of class A is called first, followed by the constructor of class C.

Here is a brief explanation of what happens when the program is executed:

The program starts executing, and the main function is called.
The object of class C is created.
Since class C is derived from class A, the constructor of class A is called first.
After the constructor of class A finishes executing, the constructor of class C is called.
The program prints the output to the console, which displays the message "Constructor of A class" followed by "Constructor of C class".

Source Code

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class A
{
   public:
    A()
    {
      cout<<"Constructor of A class"<<endl;
    }
};
class B: public A
{
  public:
    B()
    {
      cout<<"Constructor of B class"<<endl;
    }
};
class C: public A
{
  public:
    C()
    {
      cout<<"Constructor of C class"<<endl;
    }
};
int main()
{
  C obj;
  return 0;
}
