EXERCISE 1: PUT ON YOUR THINKING CAP

Which of the following are disadvantages of using


inheritance to provide Duck behaviour? (Choose all that apply.)
 A. Code is duplicated across subclasses.
 B. Runtime behaviour changes are difficult.
E.g., we cannot change the flying behaviour of a duck at runtime.
 C. We can't make ducks dance.
 D. Hard to gain knowledge of all duck behaviours.
E.g., we need to look at all the duck subclasses to determine all the
different quacking behaviours.
 E. Ducks can't fly and quack at the same time.
 F. Changes can unintentionally affect other ducks.
E.g., adding flying behaviour to the superclass allowed all ducks to
fly, even those that should not be able to fly.
