What is difference between Inheritance and abstract classes?

Hello @Author you are right we can do every thing with inheritance which can we implement with abstract class . But both  are different  concept ,working and uses of both are different .

Let us understand both

Inheritance is used to inherit all the method and fields of parent class.  but

Abstract class is a special type of class which cannot be instantiated and acts as a base class for other classes. Abstract class members marked as abstract must be implemented by derived classes. The purpose of an abstract class is to provide a common definition of base class that multiple derived classes can share, and can be used only as a base class and never want to create the object of this class. Any class can be converted into abstract class by adding abstract modifier to it. Common features of an abstract class:

So if we want to create a class such that this class should be hide from user means user can not implement it direct then we should declare a class abstract and inherited by other class.
Other diff is that if we have some method in base class that must be implemented in drived class that then we can marks this method as abstract class so this is only possible in abstract class.
Now a question arise when we use abstract class over inheritance . Ans is followings conditions we should use abstract class over simple inheritance

1.When independency of a class is not require in your application.

2.   If there are certain members/ behaviors which are common to all classes, these should be placed inside the abstract class.

3. If we want to  provide some method to base class which must be implemented in drived class then we can use concept of abstract class and make the method abstract. Which we want  to implement in drived class.

   In all other condition we should use Inheritance
I hope my ans help you understand diff b/w both  . If you have any query then you can ask  i will try to solve ..
Thanks

This is part1

First you should understand the meaning given in the Cambridge online Dictionary then only you can proceed. Both are completely different concept.

Inheritance means the particular characteristics received from parents through the genes .

If a statement, argument, or discussion is abstract, it is general and not based on particular examples.

any one there?
