Q1. In which of these situations are interfaces better than abstract classes?

  • When you need to define an object type's characteristics, use an interface. When you need to define an object type's capabilities, use an abstract class.
  • Interfaces are a legacy of older versions of C#, and are interchangeable with the newer abstract class feature.
  • When you need a list of capabilities and data that are classes-agnostic, use an interface. When you need a certain object type to share characteristics, use an abstract class.
  • You should use both an interface and an abstract class when defining any complex object.
