Challenge 2: Implement an Animal Class

Explore how to implement an Animal class in C++ and extend it using inheritance to create Dog and Sheep classes. Understand how derived classes call base class methods and manage their own unique attributes. This lesson helps you practice code reuse and object-oriented programming principles in C++ by building and printing details of animal objects.

Problem Statement

The code below has:

  • A parent class named Animal.

    • Inside it define:
      • Name
      • Sound
      • void Animal_Details() function:
        • It prints the name and sound of the Animal.
  • Then there are two derived classes

    • Dog class
      • has a private member family
      • has a function named Dog_detail() which prints detail of the dog
