It then defines inheritance as the process of inheriting properties and behavior from an existing or parent class into a new or child class. The document outlines the syntax for inheritance in C++ and provides examples of different types of inheritance including single, multilevel, multiple, hierarchical, and hybrid inheritance. It also discusses visibility modes for inherited members as private, protected, or public and provides an example to illustrate inheritance.
