Hi!

Does anyone here have opinions about when to user inheritance and when to use an identifier instead?

Inheritance example:

class Animal 
{
    public int Name { get; set; }
}

class Dog : Animal {}

class Cat : Animal {}

Identifier example:

class Animal 
{
    public int Name { get; set; }

    public AnimalType { get; set; }
}

In what situations should i prefer which solution and what are the pros and cons for them?
