Object-oriented programming (OOP) has been around for decades. If you have a basic understanding of C++ and are interested in leveling up your skills, this class will help you do just that. 

Starting with an overview of the basics, you’ll dive into understanding the time-honored technique for implementing complex applications using user-defined classes. Followed up by discussing classes and objects, and then building up to the high-level topics including inheritance and polymorphism. 

Throughout the course, you’ll be fully immersed in OOP for C++, with illustrations, exercises, quizzes, and hands-on challenges every step of the way. You’ll walk away with an understanding of classes and objects behavior and be able to easily create simple, efficient, reusable and secure code.

Learn Object-Oriented Programming in C++

In the last lesson, we have seen that `Vehicle` class attributes are shared by the other two classes(`Car` and `Ship`). 

# Vehicle as a Base Class

We can consider the `Vehicle` class as a `base` class as it has common attributes.

# Derived Classes

*Cars* and *Ships* are considered as `derived` classes as they're inheriting properties from `vehicle` class.

# Modes of Inheritance

There are three modes of class inheritance: `public`, `private` and `protected`. The basic syntax for inheritance is given below:

```C++
class derivedClassName : modeOfInheritance baseClassName
```

We use the keyword **public** to implement **public** inheritance.

In this lesson, we'll be learning about how a base class attributes are available to the derived classes and how to define base and a derived class.
