1.4 Inheritance Notation

The following convention is used to show that class A inherits from class B:

A  B 

When a class inherits from more than one class, or there are multiple levels of inheritance, all of its inheritance relationships are shown. For example, the following illustration indicates that class A inherits from class B and from class C, which inherits from class D.

    B 
A 
    C  D 

The notation used here is the standard UML arrow.
