We have class A, and class B which is derived from class A. B b; Object b of class B is created and the constructors are called. Since class B has no explicitly defined constructor, the program calls class A constructor, which calls foo() from class A. Prints 3. b.bar(); Method bar() called using object b. No method in class B goes by the name bar, so class A bar() method is called. bar() method calls foo(), and this foo() is from class A ( because bar() is from class A, and cannot access class B foo() ). Prints 3. Program ends, destructors are called. Class A destructor calls foo() from class A again. Prints 3. Output: 333
