Understanding when to use each is important when designing classes. The preference tends to be to avoid deep inheritance chains, and prefer composition when possible. Part of making that decision means understanding when an object should 'have-a' type as part of it, versus the type having a 'is-a' (inheritance) relationship to truly represent a subclass. ►YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/MikeShah ►Please like and subscribe to help the channel!
