Object-oriented programming (OOP) has been around for decades. If you have a basic understanding of C++ and are interested in leveling up your skills, this class will help you do just that. 

Starting with an overview of the basics, you’ll dive into understanding the time-honored technique for implementing complex applications using user-defined classes. Followed up by discussing classes and objects, and then building up to the high-level topics including inheritance and polymorphism. 

Throughout the course, you’ll be fully immersed in OOP for C++, with illustrations, exercises, quizzes, and hands-on challenges every step of the way. You’ll walk away with an understanding of classes and objects behavior and be able to easily create simple, efficient, reusable and secure code.

## Why do We Need Inheritance?

In the [classes](https://www.educative.io/courses/learn-object-oriented-programming-in-cpp/what-is-a-class) chapter, we've covered the `HAS-A` relationship. We know a class `HAS-A` data members and member functions.  Now, we want the data members, and member functions of the class are accessible from other classes. So, the capability of a class to derive properties and characteristics from another class is called `Inheritance`. In inheritance, we have `IS-A` relationship between classes e.g a *car* is a *vehicle* and a *ship* is a *vehicle*.

Let's take the example of `Vehicle` here.

## Vehicle Class

In a Vehicle class, we have many data members like *Make*, *Color*, *Year* and *Model*. A `Vehicle` *HAS-A*  Model, Year, Color and Make. 

### Implementation of `Vehicle` Class

Let's look at the implementation of `Vehicle` class:
