Get sub classes and super class in ruby on rails

Get the sub classes from super class by using command

subclasses_of(Parent Class Name)

Get the super class from sub class by using command

Child Class Name.superclass

eg. Class User
      end

     Class Admin < User
     end
    
     Class Employee < User
     end

Lets we have User as super class and which inherited by sub classes Admin and Employee respectively.

If we need to get child classes by using subclasses_of(User) and to get parent class by using Admin.superclass.
