Key Features
- Parent-child relationship
- Code reuse
- Polymorphism
Pros
- Encourages code reuse and modularity
- Helps in creating flexible and scalable code
- Facilitates polymorphism and dynamic binding
Cons
- Can lead to tight coupling between classes if not implemented carefully
- May introduce complexity in large inheritance hierarchies
