Single inheritance enables a derived class to inherit properties and behavior from a single parent class. It allows a derived class to inherit the properties and behavior of a base class, thus enabling code reusability as well as adding new features to the existing code. This makes the code much more elegant and less repetitive.
Syntax
class A{
//Do something
}
class B extends A{
//Do something
}
class C extends A{
//Do something
}
Single Inheritance Example Program
class SingleInheritance{
static int num1=10;
static int num2=5;
}
class MainInheritance extends SingleInheritance{
public static void main(String[] args){
int num3=2;
int result=num1+num2+num3;
System.out.println("Result of child class is "+result);
}
}
Sample Output
Output is:
Result of child class is 17
