  2. Multiple inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_inheritance

    Multiple inheritance is a feature of some object-oriented computer programming languages in which an object or class can inherit features from more than one parent object or parent class. It is distinct from single inheritance, where an object or class may only inherit from one particular object or class.

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python, everything is an object, even classes. Classes, as objects, have a class, which is known as their metaclass. Python also supports multiple inheritance and mixins. The language supports extensive introspection of types and classes. Types can be read and compared—types are instances of type. The attributes of an object can be ...

  4. is-a - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is-a

    The following python code establishes an explicit inheritance relationship between classes B and A, where B is both a subclass and a subtype of A, and can be used as an A wherever a B is required. class A : def do_something_a_like ( self ): pass class B ( A ): def do_something_b_like ( self ): pass def use_an_a ( some_a ): some_a . do_something ...

  5. C3 linearization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C3_linearization

    C3 superclass linearization is an algorithm used primarily to obtain the order in which methods should be inherited in the presence of multiple inheritance.In other words, the output of C3 superclass linearization is a deterministic Method Resolution Order (MRO).

  6. Mixin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixin

    It provides a mechanism for multiple inheritance by allowing one class to use common functionality from multiple classes, but without the complex semantics of multiple inheritance. [7] Code reusability: Mixins are useful when a programmer wants to share functionality between different classes. Instead of repeating the same code over and over ...

  7. Composition over inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_over_inheritance

    Composition over inheritance (or composite reuse principle) in object-oriented programming (OOP) is the principle that classes should favor polymorphic behavior and code reuse by their composition (by containing instances of other classes that implement the desired functionality) over inheritance from a base or parent class. [2]

  8. Class (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_(computer_programming)

    Not all languages support multiple inheritance. For example, Java allows a class to implement multiple interfaces, but only inherit from one class. [22] If multiple inheritance is allowed, the hierarchy is a directed acyclic graph (or DAG for short), otherwise it is a tree. The hierarchy has classes as nodes and inheritance relationships as links.

  9. Twin pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_pattern

    There will be sub-classes each of which is derived from one of the super-classes. The sub-classes are mutually linked via fields, and each sub-class may override the methods inherited from the super-class. New methods and fields are usually declared in one sub-class. [1] The following diagram shows the typical structure of multiple inheritance:
