to be a little clearer, if class A extends class B, you can say "A is a B".
if B then extends C, "B is a C". by the transitive property, you can say "A is a C". and so on and so on...
if the class definition doesn't SAY it extends anything, it extends Object by default.
so, A extends B extends C extends Object.
