13.10. Inheritance and Other Topics

Constructing classes and using them to create objects gives your Python code a serious power boost. All that remains for this chapter are a couple of optional topics that your teacher may or may not ask you to explore. The content can be found in the Optional Content appendix:

1. Inheritance

2. Making independent object copies

Consult your teacher about whether or not you should dive into these ideas. The answer will depend on how close your class is to the end of the semester as well as the overall goals and objectives of the course.
