Can a constructor be inherited? Why or why not?

No, a constructor cannot be inherited. This is because constructors are not members of a class but special type functions that initialize objects of the class. They have the same name as the class and no return type. When a new object is created, its constructor gets called automatically. However, when we create an object of a subclass, the superclass’s constructor isn’t invoked because it doesn’t exist in the subclass. Instead, the subclass has its own constructor. If a subclass needs to use the superclass’s constructor, it can do so explicitly using the ‘super’ keyword in Java or base in C#.
