Inheritance

• Inheritance and Composition are two different ways to quickly build multiple classes related to each other
• Inheritance uses an “is-a” relationship like “An eagle is-a bird, or a falcon is-a bird”
• Composition uses a “has-a” relationship like “A bird has-a beak, a bird has wings”
• Composition will use a main class that “calls” other classes to build itself
• Inheritance will use the “extends” keyword to create another class based on the super-class
