Answer / a b

Implementing from multiple interfaces is not true multiple
inheritance. The objective of inheritance is code reuse,
which is attained only when the base class contains that
code. But since an interface does not contain any code code
at all, there's no code reuse happening at all. Instead, an
implementing class needs to provide code for each and every
method defined in a class.
