Programming Principles: Super and Sub-classes

In this session we introduce inheritance - one of the cornerstone concepts of object oriented programming. We look at how to define super and sub-classes, how to maintain encapsulation using the super() constructor, and why it is useful to use substitution to hold references to sub-classes in references typed as their super-class.

Programming Principles: Abstract Classes and Interfaces

In this session we look at how to use Abstract Classes and Interfaces in Object Oriented Design - especially as a way to get all the advantages of multiple inheritance without any of the problems.
