Design and implement an object-oriented program describing two kinds of BANK accounts, FixedFee and ChargeableFee, that differ in the way that fees are charged:
• FixedFee: There is a fixed £5.00 fee at the end of the each month
• ChargeableFee: Each withdrawal costs £0.50. The total fee is calculated and
charged at the end of the month.
The goal for the problem is to use inheritance


I HAVE CREATED A BANK ACCOUNT FOR DEPOSIT AND WITHDRAWL AND THE DETAILS BUT HOW DO I INCLUDE fixed fee and chargeable fee IN MY CODE.....so that is affects the withdrawl

As the assignment says, you need to use inheritance.

As the assignment says, you need to use inheritance.

yes i have read that...but how do i start....and from which point...like i literally need a start to implement these 2 conditions......

The way to use inheritance is to think what FixedFee and ChargeableFee have in common. Obviously most of the code for the two classes is identical, beside how and when they charge there fees. Assemble all the common information into one class, and use inheritance to only write the changes between the two. What those two have in common? In what they differ?
