642: Mainline

Consider a demonstration program that consists of five classes. The Attraction class, along with the Movie class and Symphony class, form a class hierarchy that extends the Object class. The Auxiliaries and Demonstrate classes, which stand apart from the Attraction class hierarchy, also extend the Object class:

*-------------* 
| Object      | 
*-------------* 
     ^  ^  ^ extends 
     |  |  *--------------------------------------------* 
     |  | extends                                       | 
     |  *----------------------*                        | 
     | extends                 |                        | 
*-------------*         *-------------*         *-------------* 
| Attraction  |         | Auxiliaries |         | Demonstrate | 
*-------------*         *-------------*         *-------------* 
     ^  ^ extends
