Minor spoiler: have heard this word more than 40 years ago in a Botany class. But yes, this is almost a proper noun.

Here is something you all been waiting for to flame me :
statement
subclassing is same as inheritance
declaration
class A is a subclass if/when it inherits from class B
example:
class A : class B
statement
class A is called parent if/when class B is used as its variable
Con / pro expected...
Variation of terminology is also expected.
Sticking with the subject optional.
If feasible, skip "declaration / definition" challenge.
Cheers

What's wrong with the IS-A and HAS-A terminology?
Examples:
A cat IS-A mammal
A cat HAS-A tail
class Cat : Mammal {
Tail tail_; };

The problem with this example is that not all cats have a tail.
|
|
|
|
|
Then allow tail to be null and handle appropriately

What kind of software do you use to tap the sound going to your PC speakers? Preferably freeware.
A non-computer friend of mine considers me a guru for all sorts of computer issues. When I haven't had any similar need myself, I have no off hand answer to him (beyond 'Place a microphone in front of the PC speakers, and digitize that recording - that is not considered a viable solution anno 2024!). His immediate "need" is to capture an audio podcast that he wants to listen to when driving is car, but he asks me for a general solution for capturing any sound. This podcast is delivered through a web page that does not reveal any URL for each of the 109 chapters of the podcast, e.g. usable for yt-dlp. My friend is far from well-to-do, so he definitely prefers freeware. Certainly no huge, expensive software suite.

streamWriter[^] should do the trick. However, you'll need standard podcast URL that you can post into an app like WinAmp.

Sound quality would suffer a lot. To do it with hardwarre then better to use a cable forwarding the jack of the loudspeakers to the mic input.
But almost every software out there to make video capture or edit audio has a setting somewhere to "record system sounds", check that, unplug the mic, start the stream, hit "record" and you will have the best quality your hardware can give you.

So he wants to capture what's being sent to the soundcard? As in, play back the podcast and record it in real time?
I don't understand how this saves anyone any time, unless he's going to schedule this to take place at 2:00am.
Winamp had a Write to Disk option somewhere, which went as fast as it could (eg, it's not taking 2 minutes to convert a 2-minute MP3), but then, the problem is still, how do you point Winamp to the audio if the podcast doesn't expose the URL.
My suggestion would be to try harder to find said URL. Let me guess, his source is Apple?

Check out VoiceMeeter. You can setup virtual sound sources and direct them anywhere you like, e.g. a DAW

Can we have a link to the web page with these podcasts?
Someone might be able to figure out the stream addresses.

VLC can convert direct to disk, using the "media->convert/save" option directly from the app menu.
Problem here however is one of automation.
That said, VLC does have an automation interface (I can't remember exactly how, it's been years since I did anything with it) but I remember once a very long time ago writing a .NET front end (Winforms app) which when put on a server could be used to save the currently playing iFrame under an ASP.NET web page to disk.
VLC does also have a stand alone library file of all it's main functions, it's documented on the VLC site I think, and there are certainly a few .NET libs on NuGet to interface to it.
If you just want an app that can rip anything your currently looking at/listening too on your desktop, then OBS Studio will do the job easily and quickly.
I have my OBS set up with a number of different scenes, one of which is full screen desktop + desktop audio, so all I need to do is start OBS, click a single line of text then press record.
failing that, if your ok with batch scripting and have a txt file with all the URL's in, then you can use the command line to itterate through the text file, and pass each URL in turn to a tool like yt-dlp.
This will work on windows, linux and mac, and if you use the '-f' or '-F' flag (Can't remember which) it will list all the available formats for the mentioned URL for you, you can then use the other '-f/F' with the format number and yt-dlp will ONLY pull down that format EG: audio.
By using the -F/f flags you won't need to do any post conversion on the file, you can simply just for loop over a text file, yt-dlp each url with the appropriate format and end up with a nice clean folder of MP3's/Wavs etc.

Hmmm, I remember doing that when ripping vinyl onto reel-to-reel tape. The sound may have been a little crappy but that crappiness was nothing compared to tape wow, flutter, hiss, oxide shedding, and the poor playback system(s).
But there were some secrets revealed that in that recording method that might otherwise go unnoticed. Take, for instance, Steve Miller Band's album Number 5, side one. The last song is Tokin's and the final verses of the song repeat "And in a little while I know it's gonna change." Nothing to that, right? But when you listen to the tape the song ends and then you can hear the record changer look for the next record in the stack.
Dang! My '58 Renault Dauphine has another flat tire.
