C# Class Inheritance (REFERE TO THE PART 1)

this is the first example out of three for the class inheritance in C#

---

Code explanation:

There is one class named Person which has 6 properties:

class Person
    {
        public string Name { get; set; } //Name
        public int Age { get; set; } //Age
        public int Salary { get; set; }  //Salary
        public string Status { get; set; } //Status
        public string Building { get; set; } //Building
        public double Score { get; set; } //Score
        }

This class includes general info about hospital workers (from surgeons to cleaners)

Then there is a class named Doctor that inherits all of the properties that the Person class has and adds another class specific property

    class Doctor : Person
    {
        public string Degree { get; set; } //Doctor specific property
    }

After that comes a class named Nurses that also inherits its basic properties from the Person class and adds one class sepcific property

    class Nurse : Person 
    {
        public int Experiance { get; set; } //Nurse specific class
    }

---

All the properties in the Person class are accessible through the other classes

Doctor d1 = new Doctor();
            d1.Name = "John Doe"; //the doctor has access to all the properties in the Person class and it' s own property
            d1.Age = 42;
            d1.Salary = 70000;
            d1.Status = "ACTIVE";
            d1.Building = "Operating Room";
            d1.Score = 10;
            d1.Degree = "Berlin Universtiy of Applied Sciences";

To make a class inherit properties from an other class you will put a : and then the class name after the name of the class:

    class Person
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public int Age { get; set; }
        public int Salary { get; set; }
        public string Status { get; set; }
        public string Building { get; set; }
        public double Score { get; set; }
    }
    class Doctor : Person //This is how you inherit properties
    {
    }
