►Lesson Description: In this lesson we revisit multiple inheritance, an often frowned upon technique. That said, there are legitimate use cases, and you will see multiple inheritance used in large codebases. One technique to manage the shared (or duplicate) variables in inheritance hierarchies, is to use 'virtual inheritance'. Virtual inheritance 'merges' shared variables that are the grandparent of the current derived class. This essentially creates a 'diamond' inheritance pattern in the hierarchy. As always use caution, but in some scenarios this can be a useful tool to deriving new objects.
