🎯 What you'll learn: How child classes inherit from parents, how to use super() to extend (not replace) parent behaviour, method overriding, multiple inheritance and the MRO, the isinstance() / issubclass() checks, Abstract Base Classes with ABC, and how polymorphism lets you write one function that works for many types.
