Object-oriented Programming in C#
Specialization, Extension, and Inheritance
Specialization of classes

  • Objects of specialized classes

    • fulfill stronger conditions (constraints) than objects of generalized classes

      • obey stronger class invariants

    • have simpler and more accurate operations than objects of generalized classes

 

Specialization of classes in pure form do not occur very often.

Specialization in combination with extension is much more typical.
