Learning Object-Oriented Programming

Working with simple inheritance in C#

First, we will create a base class in C#. Then we will use simple inheritance to create subclasses and specialize behavior. We will override methods and overload comparison operators to be able to compare different instances of a specific class and its subclasses. We will take advantage of this polymorphism.

Creating classes that specialize behavior in C#

Now it is time to code all the classes in C#. The following lines show the code for the Animal abstract class in C#. The class declaration doesn't specify a base class; therefore, this class inherits from Object, specifically System.Object. System.Object is the base class for all the classes included in .NET Framework. The usage of the abstract keyword before ...
