C# Interfaces
C# is a single inheritance language, meaning a class can only have one direct parent. Often single inheritance can be a limiting factor or obstacle when designing an application's class hierarchy. This lesson explores how C# interfaces mimick multiple inheritance, enabling a class to take on the properties and methods of other unrelated classes.
Intended Audience
This lesson is intended for anyone who wants to take their C# object-oriented programming to the next level..
Prerequisites
To get the most out of this lesson, you should have a basic understanding of C# classes. If you are unfamiliar with C# classes, please take our Introduction to object orientation and C# Class lesson first.
