In this article, we will learn an Inheritance in c# with example real-time by using windows application from scratch
Go to visual studio ⭢ select windows application ⭢ Name: vechileUsingInheritance
Right Click on Solution ⭢ Add ⭢ Class name as Vehicle
Change the vehicle class as an abstract class and add inside the two classes Truck and Car.
Vehicle class is parent class and the car is a child class, under the parent class vehicle we have different types of child vehicles like a car, truck, bike lorry …etc
all child class vehicles have common functionality like start, escalator, breaks, stop, ..etc
The common functionality ( start, escalator, breaks, stop, ..etc ) we will put inside vehicle class and then we will implement in derived child class like car, truck..etc

Run the application and go through implemented code
Inheritance in c# with real time example Description
Vehicle(Parent class):
Instance Fieldmembers:
- public-NoOfTyres- no of tires
- private-Accessories-check if accessories present or not
- protected-Brand- Brand of the car.
Static FieldMember: private- Counter-No of Vehicle objects created
Constructor: Parameterless Constructor: Increment Counter. Parameterized Constructor with parameters as noOfTyres, accessories, and brand.
Instance Methods: IsPresent()-Print message with the Number of Vehicle objects created. GetBrand()-Print message with the Brand name of the vehicle.
StaticMethod: GetNoOfVehicles().
Car(Child class):
Constructor: Parameterized Constructor with parameters as noOfTyres, accessories, brand and car number also call the base class constructor.
Instance Field Member: CarNumber with private access modifier.
Instance Method: PrintCarInfo().
Main: Create Car Instance and initialize values to the field members.
Calling PrintCarInfo() Method.
