Hereditary property

In the context of systems like inheritance in programming, particularly object-oriented programming (OOP), "hereditary property" usually refers to the ability of classes to inherit properties and behaviors (i.e., methods) from other classes. This concept is a cornerstone of OOP and allows for code reuse and the creation of hierarchical relationships between classes. In this context: 1. **Superclass (or Parent Class)**: This is the class whose properties and methods are inherited by another class.
