What Is Override?

Excuse me! You're interested in override training, huh? All right, fasten your seatbelts because you're in for a bumpy journey! Let's begin by discussing the meaning of the term "override" in the context of computer programming. To override means creating a new implementation of a method already present in the parent class. To modify the method's behavior without touching the source code, you can use this technique. For a better grasp of this idea, let's compare it to something more familiar. The next time you feel down, pretend you have superpowers and save the day. The power to fly has been bestowed upon you by your parent group or by your heroic mentor. However, you wish to depart from your guru's recommended methods for using your innate propensity for flight. You yearn to soar higher and faster than you ever dreamed possible. Now, what do you do? You're able to achieve incredible speeds and altitudes because you're able to bypass the standard flight logic and replace it with your customized implementation. Oh, but hold on, there's a caveat! It's essential to have the same method signature while overriding a method. The same applies to the name of the method and its parameters. If you don't, it won't function as intended. Say you've decided to lend a pal some of your superhuman flying abilities. Your friend could fly like you do if you made a subclass of your superhero class and gave them access to your enhanced version of the superpower. Sharing your abilities (or processes) in this way is called "inheritance." Yet suppose your pal has different plans for their superpower of flight than you do. Indeed not a fuss! To construct their version of the method's implementation, they can override it, as you did. In this way, any subclass can retain access to the inherited methods while still benefiting from the capabilities of the superclass (a feature known as polymorphism). In conclusion, override lets you alter a method's operation while maintaining its signature in the original code. It also supports polymorphism and inheritance, so other classes can utilize the original method and modify it as necessary. #superpowers #inheritance #polymorphism #methodsignature #programming #coding
