Describe Virtual functions Describe Polymorphism Describe Dynamic binding Describe Pure Virtual Functions Describe Abstract classes Describe Virtual destructors Object Oriented Programming with C++ / Session 6 / of 44 Multiple Inheritance Multiple inheritance is the process of creating a new class from more than one base class. The derived class inherits the properties of two or more base classes. Multiple inheritance can combine the behaviour of many base classes in a single class. A multiple inheritance hierarchy represents a combination of its base classes.

The syntax for multiple inheritance is similar to that for single inheritance. class Teacher { }; class Student { }; class Teach_asst: public Teacher, public Student The names of both the base classes are provided separated by a comma. The rules of inheritance and access for multiple inheritance are the same as for single inheritance.
