this is my product class



public abstract class Product
{
public Product()
{
this.ComplementaryProducts = new HashSet<Product>();
this.RelatedProducts = new HashSet<Product>();
}

[Key]
public int serialNum { get; set; }
public double price { get; set; }
public double? discountPerCent { get; set; }
public double? discountPrice { get; set; }
public double weight { get; set; }
public string description { get; set; }

public Boolean? specialOffer { get; set; }
public Boolean? proposedBuy { get; set; }
public Boolean? firstPage { get; set; }
public Boolean? visible { get; set; }
public Boolean? deleted { get; set; }

public List<string> imgUrls { get; set; }

public DateTime? dateCreated { get; set; }
public DateTime? dateUpdated { get; set; }
public DateTime? dateDeleted { get; set; }

public ICollection<Product> ComplementaryProducts { get; set; }
public ICollection<Product> RelatedProducts { get; set; }

//this two lines i think are not exactly what i want
public List<Category> categories { get; set; }
public List<SubCategory> subCategories { get; set; }
}


and these are my category and subCategory classes



public class Category
{
[Key]
public string name { get; set; }
List<SubCategory> subCategories { get; set; }
}

public class SubCategory
{
[Key]
public string name { get; set; }
}


with the last two classes i could create a hierarchy of categories and subcategories but how can i say that a product belongs to a category and also to some subcategories from the parent category???
