how to inheritance class php code example
Example: how to inherit a class php
I think the best way for beginners to understand inheritance is through a real example so here is a simple example I can gave to you
<?php
class Person
{
public $name;
protected $age;
private $phone;
public function talk(){
//Do stuff here
}
protected function walk(){
//Do stuff here
}
private function swim(){
//Do stuff here
}
}
class Tom extends Person
{
/*Since Tom class extends Person class this means
that class Tom is a child class and class person is
the parent class and child class will inherit all public
and protected members(properties and methods) from
the parent class*/
/*So class Tom will have these properties and methods*/
//public $name;
//protected $age;
//public function talk(){}
//protected function walk(){}
//but it will not inherit the private members
//this is all what Object inheritance means
}
