You can inherit from multiple interfaces, but only from one base
class.

I always have the same question. :) interface feels lighterweight, so it
is an arbitrary decis

Nothing really specific to D, but for one or two properties, you
might just add them as function parameters with default values:
```d
void draw(float scale = 1.0f);
```
If you have

Interfaces can have 'final' functions:
interface Shape {
void draw(float scale);
final void draw() {
draw(1);
}
}
Obviously, for that to work, now Circle.draw() etc. required to r

2) If you want to have a shape hierarchy, then you can start by
defining its interface and implement that interface by concrete
shape types. Drawing is ordinarily handled by member functions:
