Inheritance: One object's data and/or functionality may be based on those of other objects, from which the former object is said to inherit.
Objects are defined by a classes, which is a definition, or blueprint, of all objects of a specific type.
Object-oriented programming "took off" as the dominant programming methodology during the mid-1980s, largely due to the influence of C++, an extension of the C programming language.

 Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Objects - Packaging data and functionality together into units within a running computer program; objects are the basis of modularity and structure in an object-oriented computer program.
Inheritance- Organizes and facilitates polymorphism and encapsulation by permitting objects to be defined and created that are specialized types of already-existing objects - these can share (and extend) their behavior without having to reimplement that behavior.

Then by a process of inserting objects or variables for nouns, methods for verbs and attributes for adjectives, a good start is made on a framework for a program that models, and deals with, that situation.

 Inheritance (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In object-oriented programming, inheritance is a way to form new classes (instances of which will be objects) using pre-defined objects or classes where new ones take over old ones' implementations and characteristics.
The primary concern is that implementation inheritance does not provide any assurance of polymorphic substitutability—an instance of the re-using class cannot necessarily be substituted for an instance of the inherited class.
Inheritance is often better used with a generalization mindset, such that common aspects of instantiable classes are factored to superclasses; say having a common superclass 'LegalEntity' for both Person and Company classes for all the common aspects of both.

I do admit inheritance is predomintantely used in oop and in the majority of contexts of cs, inheritance means that in CS but wikipedia is not a summary of general case but compact generalization of matters.
The article Inheritance (computer science) can discuss inheritance outside of the OOP context then; inheritance in an OOP context is of sufficient depth and complexity to deserve its own article, since that is where it is predominantly (or always, depending on your perspective) used; thus: Inheritance (object-oriented programming).
Inheritance in genetic algorithms is discussed fully in genetic algorithm there is no need to have an article sepifically about inheritance in genetic algorithms because inheritance in that context is 99% of the subject.

The code is then run on a virtual machine (VM), a program written in native code on the host hardware that translates generic Java bytecode into usable code on the hardware.
Although it is indeed possible to write programs for the Java platform that behave consistently across many host platforms, the large number of available platforms with small errors or inconsistencies led some to parody Sun's "Write once, run anywhere" slogan as "Write once, debug everywhere".
Objects are created and placed at an address on the heap.

In an object based world the only way for anything to happen is by objects communicating with each other and acting on the results.
The distinction between class and object operations is not particularly important unless you are using an object-oriented language, suffice to say that operations that concern objects in general (e.g.
Many of an object's functions are very simple, often only one or two commands, but because they are functions they incur the overhead of a function call and return every time they are used.

 Inheritance (object-oriented programming)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In computer science's object-oriented programming theory, inheritance is a programming language feature which allows one class or object to incorporate data or behavioral facets of another.
The concept of inheritance is also used in other areas of computer science, such as Cascading Style Sheets.
The primary concern is that implementation inheritance doesn't provide any assurance of polymorphic substitutability—an instance of the re-using class cannot necessarily be substituted for an instance of the inherited class.

My point isn't that inheritance is foundamental or not but we don't use a parenthesis to have a subtopic or we don't disambiguate topics with narrow topic name.
Because inheritance in oop is part of inheritance in cs (I think oop is part of cs), inheritance (computer science) isn't a misnomer no matter the article only talks about inheritance in oop or not.

 Object-Oriented Programming Concepts
You need to understand what an object is, what a class is, how objects and classes are related, and how objects communicate by using messages.
Software objects are often used to model real-world objects you find in everyday life.
A class is a blueprint or prototype that defines the variables and the methods common to all objects of a certain kind.

 object-oriented programming - a Whatis.com definition - see also: OOP, object-oriented   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Object-oriented programming takes the view that what we really care about are the objects we want to manipulate rather than the logic required to manipulate them.
Examples of objects range from human beings (described by name, address, and so forth) to buildings and floors (whose properties can be described and managed) down to the little widgets on your computer desktop (such as buttons and scroll bars).
The first step in OOP is to identify all the objects you want to manipulate and how they relate to each other, an exercise often known as data modeling.

 DBMS - June 1996 - Object-Oriented Analysis and Design   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Inheritance (also referred to as generalization/specialization) is usually identified by the phrase "is a kind of." For example, Student and Faculty are both a kind of Person and are therefore inherited from the Person class.
Object modeling and many other OO concepts in Objectory and OOSE are similar to OO concepts in other methodologies.
You must be able to recognize quickly if the object methodology isn't working for your particular project, and you must find another approach that does work, whether it is object oriented or not.

 How Object-Oriented Programming Started   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Simula 67 introduced most of the key concepts of object-oriented programming: both objects and classes, subclasses (usually referred to as inheritance) and virtual procedures, combined with safe referencing and mechanisms for bringing into a program collections of program structures described under a common class heading (prefixed blocks).
When the inheritance mechanism was invented in 1967, Simula 67 was developed as a general programming language that also could be specialised for many domains, including system simulation.
Instead object-oriented programming is today (in the late 1990s) becoming the dominant style for implementing complex programs with large numbers of interacting components.

See inheritance (computer science) for other computing uses of inheritance.
In object-oriented programming of computer science, an inheritance is a way to form new classes or objects using pre-defined objects or classes where new ones simply take over old ones's implemetions and characterstics.
In specialization, the new class or object has data or behavior aspects which are not part of the inherited class.

is a way to form new classes or objects using pre-defined objects or classes where new ones simply take over old ones's implemetions and characterstics.
The primary concern is that implementation_inheritance does not provide any assurance of polymorphic substitutability—an instance of the re-using class cannot necessarily be substituted for an instance of the inherited class.
In his book Object Oriented Software Construction, 2nd ed., Meyer lists twelve different uses of inheritance that he considers to be legitimate, most of which involve some amount of implementation inheritance.

As there are somethings that can be done with "manifest typed" programs that can't be done with dynamic programs, the reverse is also especially true: untyped, non-typed, or dynamic programs have special capabilities that typed systems don't have.
With Traits, classes are still organized in a single inheritance hierarchy, but they can make use of Traits to specify the incremental difference in behavior with respect to their superclasses.

Other concepts, such as inheritance and dynamic dispatching, are not supported directly, but can be emulated.
