Which of the following statements is false?
A) New classes can be formed quickly through inheritance and composition from classes in abundant class libraries.
B) Eventually, software will be constructed predominantly from standardized, xe "reusable componentry"reusable xe "component"components, just as hardware is constructed from interchangeable parts today. This will help meet the challenges of developing ever more powerful software.
C) When creating a new class, instead of writing all new code, you can designate that the new class is to be formed initially by inheriting the attributes and methods of a previously defined base class (also called a subclass) and the new class is called a derived class (or superclass).
D) After inheriting, you then customize the derived class to meet the specific needs of your application. To minimize the customization effort, you should always try to inherit from the base class that's closest to your needs.

The statement in C is false because it incorrectly defines the terms "base class" and "subclass," as well as "derived class" and "superclass." In correct terminology, the base class (or superclass) is the class from which attributes and methods are inherited, and the derived class (or subclass) is the new class that inherits those attributes and methods.
