C++ Program to Illustrate Access Control in Inheritance

This C++ program illustrates access control in inheritance. The access control can be managed with three keywords – public, private and protected. The public keyword allows access by every class, the private doesn’t allow access by any class and the protected keyword works just like private except for the classes inherited from the base class, where the elements declared protected are visible in the classes derived from it.

Here is the source code of the C++ program which illustrates access control in inheritance. The C++ program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.
