Chapter 11, Problem 1TF

Mark the following statements as true or false.

  1. In single inheritance, a base class can create only one derived class. (1)

  2. The public members of a base class can only be inherited as public members in the derived class. (2)

  3. To redefine (or override) a member function of the base class in the derived class, the corresponding member function must have the same name, number, and type of parameters. (3)

  4. If the derived class does not override a public member function of the base class, you may specify a call to that public member function by using the name of the function and the appropriate parameter list. (3)

  5. The constructor of a derived class can specify a call to the constructor of the base class in the heading of the function definition. (4)

  6. The constructor of a derived class can specify a call to the constructor of the base class using the name of the class. (4)

  7. Suppose that x and y are classes, one of the member variables of x is an object of type y, and both classes have constructors. The constructor of x specifies a call to the constructor of y by using the object name of type y. (4)

  8. When the destructor of the derived class executes, it automatically invokes the destructor of the base class. (5)

  9. The class ios is the base class for all stream classes. (7)

  10. In protected inheritance, the private members of the base class are protected members of the derived class. (8)

  11. In composition, one or more members of a class are objects of another class type. (9)

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
Program Plan Intro

Inheritance allows creation of new classes from existing classes. The new classes that are created from the existing classes are called the derived classes; the existing classes arecalled the base classes. The derived classes inherit the properties of the base classes.

Program Description Answer

In single inheritance, a base class can create only one derived class. Hence, the given statement is “True”.

Explanation of Solution

In single inheritance,the derived class is derived from a single base class. In multiple inheritance, thederived class is derived from more than one base class.

Passing arguments to base classes constructors solves the problem of selecting a base class constructor in inheritance. Can the same problem arise with composition? That is, might there be a case where a constructor of a class might have to pass arguments to the constructor of a contained class? If so, guess the syntax that would be used to pass the parameters, and construct a simple example to verify your guess.
Question part 3: Draw a UML class diagram with all the classes and relationships.   More info:  In this last and final part of the course work you are required to change the definition of the Item_in_Stock class to make it an abstract class and change the getItemCat(), getItemName() and getItemDescription() definitions to make them abstract methods. You are then required to design and implement three classes which are derived from Item_in_Stock class to fully demonstrate the concept of inheritance and polymorphism. Implementation of HP_Laptop class in part II should have given you an idea of inheritance and polymorphism. Three sub classes, one class against each category (Computers, Laptops and Accessories), should contain appropriate constructors, instance variables, setter and getters methods and overridden methods for getItemName(), getItemDescription() and get_Item_details() method. You should be creative and come up with your own ideas of sub-classes.   (please see the photo if…
Use C++ to code. Inheritance may be performed by creating two classes, with three data members in the parent class and two in the child class. (classes must have access to data members). The parent class's constructor must take parameters. The values from the child class's constructor are needed by the parent class's constructor. Produce an instance of a subclass and print its information to the console.
