 <summary>Explain inheritance and how to use it in Python</summary><br><b>
+```
+By definition inheritance is the mechanism where an object acts as a base of another object, retaining all its
+properties.
+
+So if Class B inherits from Class A, every characteristics from class A will be also available in class B.
+Class A would be the 'Base class' and B class would be the 'derived class'.
+
+This comes handy when you have several classes that share the same functionalities.
+
+The basic syntax is:
+
+class Base: pass
+
+class Derived(Base): pass
+
+A more forged example:
+
+class Animal:
+    def __init__(self):
+        print("and I'm alive!")
+
+    def eat(self, food):
+        print("ñom ñom ñom", food)
+
+class Human(Animal):
+    def __init__(self, name):
+        print('My name is ', name)
+        super().__init__()
+
+    def write_poem(self):
+        print('Foo bar bar foo foo bar!')
+
+class Dog(Animal):
+    def __init__(self, name):
+        print('My name is', name)
+        super().__init__()
+
+    def bark(self):
+        print('woof woof')
+
+
+michael = Human('Michael')
+michael.eat('Spam')
+michael.write_poem()
+
+bruno = Dog('Bruno')
+bruno.eat('bone')
+bruno.bark()
+
+>>> My name is  Michael
+>>> and I'm alive!
+>>> ñom ñom ñom Spam
+>>> Foo bar bar foo foo bar!
+>>> My name is Bruno
+>>> and I'm alive!
+>>> ñom ñom ñom bone
+>>> woof woof
+
+Calling super() calls the Base method, thus, calling super().__init__() we called the Animal __init__.
+
+There is a more advanced python feature called MetaClasses that aid the programmer to directly control class creation.
