When designing object-oriented code, subclasses should be the specializations. The situation you describe makes the base class the specialization because it has more specific requirements than the subclass.

There is a principle called the "Liskov Substitution Principle" that says all subclasses should work where the base class works - and this wouldn't be the case as calling subclass.age would fail.

Instead, the base class should have the two common properties, and there should be a subclass that represents the extended class that represents the situation where an age would be used.

Score

  • Name
  • Marks

AgedScore extends Score

  • Age

The names are examples here, ideally you'd name them after what they relate to in the business domain.
