    public Parent(int x) { }
}
class Child : Parent {
    public Child() {
        base();

AParent constructor must be parameterless

Bbase() cannot be called like a method inside constructor body

CChild constructor must have int parameter

DNo error, code is valid

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand base constructor call syntax
In C#, calling a base class constructor must be done in the constructor initializer, not inside the constructor body.
Step 2: Identify the syntax error
The code incorrectly calls base(); inside the constructor body, which is invalid syntax.
Final Answer:
base() cannot be called like a method inside constructor body -> Option B
Quick Check:
base constructor call must be in initializer [OK]

Quick Trick: Call base constructor after colon, not inside constructor body [OK]
