Inheritance

I am new to C++. Recently i so an article here about Inheritance in C++, but i couldn't understand what it is. Can anyone help me please?
Basically inheritance is when the children class inherits or derives from the parent class. If you need an example, let me know.
Think of it as the aspects of a parents features being passed down genetically to their child; aka blue eyes or brown hair. If you have any other questions you can pm me at lenzojake@gmail.com
