PHP Inheritance

Extending classes.

PHP - What is Inheritance?

Inheritance in OOP = When a class derives from another class.

The child class will inherit all the public and protected properties and methods from the parent class. In addition, it can have its own properties and methods.

An inherited class is defined by using the extends keyword.

The final Keyword

The final keyword can be used to prevent class inheritance or to prevent method overriding.
