第 1 章：简介

本 eBook 深入探讨多级继承的基本原理及实际应用——这是面向对象程序设计中的核心概念。通过围绕 Animal Class 层次结构的一个引人入胜的真实例子，我们讨论了继承如何促进代码重用与清晰性，同时指出在 Class 结构过于复杂时可能出现的不足。

涵盖的关键点：

继承结构概览及其对开发者的益处。
对 Protected Access Specifier 的解释及其对子类的影响。
详细讨论从 Animal Class 派生出来的各种 Class：Reptile、Crocodile、Fish、Eel 和 Bird。
逐步代码讲解以及带有注释的 sample program code。
对 Class 差异的比较见解与表格数据总结。

多级继承的优点 (Pros)：

通过允许子类继承属性来促进代码重用。
由于集中管理通用属性，使得修改和维护更简单。
恰当使用时能提升代码结构的清晰度。

局限性 (Cons)：

存在继承体系过于复杂而难以 debug 的风险。
如果未正确理解，可能会导致对 Protected Access Specifier 的误用。
当继承链过长时会带来维护问题。

────────────────────────────────────────────

第 2 章：理解 Inheritance 和 Protected Attributes

Inheritance 是一种机制，其中一个 Class (child) 获取另一个 Class (parent) 的属性和行为。在本例中，Animal Class 为各种生物提供了一个蓝图，而其子类（如 Reptile、Fish、Eel 和 Bird）扩展了这种功能。

关键概念：

Animal Class: 作为包含 height、weight、animal type 和 blood type 等通用属性的基类。
Protected Access Specifier: 声明属性使其对子类可访问，同时向外部 Class 保持隐藏。
Default Constructors: 使用标准默认值初始化对象，允许在子类中进行 method overriding。
Method Overriding: 子类可以重新定义继承的方法 (例如，showInfo) 以提供特定于 Class 的细节。

────────────────────────────────────────────

第 3 章：探讨 Animal Class 及其 Child Classes

本章的核心是 Animal Class 层次结构，它为多级继承提供了一个典型示例。

Animal Class:

属性：height, weight, animal type, blood type (均标记为 protected 以便子类直接访问)。
方法：默认构造器初始化属性，以及一个重命名为 showInfo 的方法用于展示信息。

派生 Class 概览：

────────────────────────────────────────────

Class 属性比较表

────────────────────────────────────────────

Class Name	Key Properties	Special Attributes/Overriding Details
Animal	height, weight, animal type, blood type	基类，具有 protected 属性和默认初始化；提供 showInfo 方法
Reptile	继承 Animal 的属性	新增 skin type 与 egg type；提供默认 backbone 信息
Crocodile	覆盖 egg type	使用 super() 构造器，并以 “hard-shelled Eggs” 替换 egg，演示了选择性 overriding
Fish	生活在水中	使用类似 water habitat indicator 的默认值
Eel	继承基类属性，并增加了特殊的 electric charge 机制	为 Eel 独家引入了一个 private variable 用于 electric charge
Bird	具有飞行能力和 feathers	新增 boolean 属性以展示飞行与 feather 状态；Eagle 作为直接扩展，仅作最小化 overriding

何时使用这种结构：

适用于要求拥有不同但相关对象属性的项目。
在子类共享一套通用行为但需要扩展时非常有用。
非常适合以简化和直观的方式学习继承概念。

本 eBook 提供了关于面向对象程序设计中多级继承的全面指南。我们探讨了：

Animal Class 作为共享属性基类的重要性。
Protected properties 如何使子类能够访问及覆盖关键信息。
诸如 Reptile、Crocodile、Fish、Eel 和 Bird 等 Class 的实际区分。
详细的示例代码讲解，展示了继承、method overriding 以及访问 specifiers 的重要性。
继承结构的直观对比和图示表示。

最主要的启示在于：当设计得当时，多级继承能够显著简化代码管理并提高重用性。通过 coding 项目来实践这些概念，将有助于你在实际场景中加深理解与应用。
