    OOPs Concepts in Java

    and
    Real-time Example
    Polymorphism in Java | Compile Time, Runtime, Example
     The word polymorphism is derived from two Greek words: poly and morphs. The word
    “poly” implies many and “morphs” means forms.
     Therefore, polymorphism means “many forms”. That is one thing that can take many
    forms.
    Types of Polymorphism in Java
    Basically, there are two types of polymorphism in java.
    They are:
    1. Static polymorphism
    2. Dynamic polymorphism

    Polymorphism in Java | Compile Time, Runtime, Example

    Static Polymorphism in Java


     A polymorphism that is exhibited during compilation is called static polymorphism in
    java. In static polymorphism, the behavior of a method is decided at compile-time.
     Hence, Java compiler binds method calls with method definition/body during
    compilation. Therefore, this type of polymorphism is also called compile-time
    polymorphism in Java.
     Since binding is performed at compile-time, it is also known as early binding.
    Compile-time polymorphism can be achieved/implemented by method overloading in
    java.
    Polymorphism in Java | Compile Time, Runtime, Example
    Static Polymorphism in Java
     Method overloading is a mechanism in which a class has multiple methods having the
    same name but different signatures.
     It is one of the ways that Java implements polymorphism.
     Another example of static polymorphism is constructor overloading and method hiding.
    Dynamic Polymorphism in Java
     A polymorphism that is exhibited at runtime is called dynamic polymorphism in java.
     The behavior of a method is decided at runtime,
    therefore, the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) binds the method call with method
    definition/body at runtime and invokes the relevant method during runtime when the
    method is called.

    Dynamic Polymorphism in Java…


     Dynamic or runtime polymorphism can be achieved/implemented in java using method
    overriding. Method overriding is a mechanism where a method of Base class is
    overridden in the derived class to provide a more specific implementation.
     The signature of method in both base and derived classes is the same but they only differ
    in their implementation.
