An abstract class is a class that is designed to be specifically used as a base class . An abstract class contains at least one pure virtual function. You declare a pure virtual function by using a pure specifier ( = 0 ) in the declaration of a virtual member function in the class declaration.

A concrete example of an abstract class would be a class called Animal . You see many animals in real life, but there are only kinds of animals. That is, you never look at something purple and furry and say “that is an animal and there is no more specific way of defining it”.
Read moreWhat is abstract class explain it with an example?
Abstract classes are essential to providing an abstraction to the code to make it reusable and extendable . For example, a Vehicle parent class with Truck and Motorbike inheriting from it is an abstraction that easily allows more vehicles to be added.

Read moreWhat is abstraction with example?
In simple terms, abstraction “displays” only the relevant attributes of objects and “hides” the unnecessary details . For example, when we are driving a car, we are only concerned about driving the car like start/stop the car, accelerate/ break, etc.

A class that contains a pure virtual function is known as an abstract class. In the above example, the class Shape is an abstract class. We cannot create objects of an abstract class. However, we can derive classes from them, and use their data members and member functions (except pure virtual functions).
