Inheritance example does not actually implement inheritance using the extends keyword

[NSDesign]

Hi there,

Unlike the Processing.org inheritance example the P5.js doesn't actually implement class inheritance. Instead two separate classes are defined, each effectively defining their own separate spin methods. Whereas, the processing.org example, both the classes SpinArms and SpinSpots extend the Spin class respectively.

Cheers

Hi, @limzykenneth. If you don't mind, I would like to work on this issue as Inheritence is actually not using any inheritance property. It's, as said, just using two classes to define its movement.

Thanks for the replay, Yes I thin it should be fixed, as it's confusing for new users.

Yes, it is quite confusing that's why I think the given code in Inheritence should be replaced with given code as I have also checked this, and it was running all fine:

let spots, arm;

function setup() {
  createCanvas(640, 360);
  arm = new SpinArm(width/2, height/2, 0.01);
  spots = new SpinSpots(width/2, height/2, -0.02, 90.0);
}

function draw() {
  background(204);
  arm.update();
  arm.display();
  spots.update();
  spots.display();
}

class Spin {
  constructor(x,y,s) {
    this.x = x;
    this.y = y;
    this.speed = s;
    this.angle = 0.0;
  }
  
  update() {
    this.angle += this.speed;
  }
}

class SpinArm extends Spin {
  constructor(x, y, s) {
    super(x,y,s)
  }

  display() {
    strokeWeight(1);
    stroke(0);
    push();
    translate(this.x, this.y);
    this.angle += this.speed;
    rotate(this.angle);
    line(0, 0, 165, 0);
    pop();
  }
}

class SpinSpots extends Spin {
  constructor(x, y, s, d) {
    super(x,y,s)
    this.dim = d;
  }

  display() {
    noStroke();
    push();
    translate(this.x, this.y);
    this.angle += this.speed;
    rotate(this.angle);
    ellipse(-this.dim/2, 0, this.dim, this.dim);
    ellipse(this.dim/2, 0, this.dim, this.dim);
    pop();
  }
}

What do you think? @NSDesign @limzykenneth

@ShenpaiSharma You can go ahead with a fix, I'll assign the issue to you.
