Composition Code Example

This document defines two C++ classes - Date and Employee. The Date class represents a calendar date with methods to initialize, print, and destruct a date object. The Employee class uses the Date class to store an employee's birthdate and hire date, and has methods to initialize, print, and destruct an Employee object. The main function creates a Date for an employee's birth and hire dates, uses them to initialize an Employee object, and prints the employee details.
