Creating a Derived Class

Here is an example of a derived class of Reptile. The syntax for making a derived class is as follows:

class name of class: public/private name of base class { //everything else is the same as making a regular class };

For now just use the public keyword, I’ll explain how the private keyword works later.

//superset, derived class from base class(reptile) class Lizard: public Reptile { public: Lizard(){}; ~Lizard(){}; void setAge(int age) { itsAge = age;} int getAge() { return itsAge;} void RegenerateTale() const { cout<<"Regenerating Tale....n";} void RunFromPredator() const { cout <<"Running...n";} protected: int itsAge; };
