polimorfizmusait

Polimorfizmusait refers to the concept of polymorphism in programming, a fundamental principle of object-oriented programming. It allows objects of different classes to be treated as objects of a common superclass. This means that a single method call can behave differently depending on the actual type of the object it is invoked upon. There are two primary types of polymorphism: compile-time polymorphism, also known as static polymorphism, and runtime polymorphism, also known as dynamic polymorphism.

Compile-time polymorphism is achieved through method overloading and operator overloading. Method overloading allows multiple methods with the same name but different parameter lists to exist within a class. The compiler determines which method to call based on the arguments provided at compile time. Operator overloading allows operators like '+' or '-' to be redefined for user-defined types.

Runtime polymorphism, on the other hand, is primarily achieved through method overriding and inheritance. Method overriding occurs when a subclass provides a specific implementation for a method that is already defined in its superclass. The decision of which overridden method to execute is made at runtime, based on the actual object type. This flexibility enables the creation of more adaptable and extensible code, as new classes can be added without modifying existing code that uses the common superclass.
