How to implement Shape class above Circle class?

Question

How to implement Shape class above Circle ? I mean Circle and Rectangle class should be inherited from Shape.

I will be happy if someone give real code :)

here i made Circle class with prototype definition as well.

function Circle(radius){
 this.radius = radius;
 Circle.prototype.area = function(){return (Math.PI)* (Math.pow(this.radius,2));};
 }

 var circle1 = new Circle(5);
 circle1.radius; //5
 circle1.area() //78.53

You can use prototype to implement inheritance in JS for ex :

ChildClassName.prototype = new ParentClass();

In your case define shape class then extend it like this :

Circle.prototype = new Shape();
