Destructors in Single Inheritance

Medium Single & Multilevel Inheritance
Solve in Playground →

Problem Statement

Define `Base` and `Derived` classes. Their destructors should print “Base Destroyed” and “Derived Destroyed”. In `main()`, enclose the instantiation of `Derived` in a local scope `{ }` so that it is destroyed immediately, and then print “End”.

Input Format

None

Output Format

Print the sequence of destructions followed by 'End'.

Constraints

None

Sample Output

Derived Destroyed
Base Destroyed
End

Explanation

Destructors are executed in the exact reverse order of constructors: derived class first, then base class.

Starter Code

#include <iostream>

class Base {
public:
    // Define destructor
};

class Derived {
    // Inherit Base and define destructor
};

int main() {
    {
        // Instantiate Derived here
    }
    // Print End
    return 0;
}

Embedded C Programming

Intermediate

Embedded systems rely on efficient low-level programming to interact directly with hardware. In this course, you will learn how to write practical Embedded C programs used in real microcontroller-based systems. Rather than focusing only on theory, this course follows a practice-driven approach. Each lesson includes hands-on coding exercises that simulate real firmware development tasks used
