Polymorphism

Polymorphism is a core concept in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) that allows objects of different classes to be treated as objects of a
common superclass. It provides a way to perform a single action in different forms. Polymorphism is typically achieved through method
overriding and interfaces

Method overriding allows a child class to provide a specific implementation of a method that is already defined in its parent class.

## Base Class
class Animal:
def speak(self):
return "Sound of the animal"

## Derived Class 1
class Dog(Animal):
def speak(self):
return "Woof!"

## Derived class
class Cat(Animal):
def speak(self):
return "Meow!"

## Function that demonstrates polymorphism


def animal_speak(animal):
print(animal.speak())

dog=Dog()
cat=Cat()
print(dog.speak())
print(cat.speak())
animal_speak(dog)

Woof!
Meow!
Woof!

### Polymorphissm with Functions and MEthods
## base class
class Shape:
def area(self):
return "The area of the figure"

## Derived class 1
class Rectangle(Shape):
def __init__(self,width,height):
self.width=width
self.height=height

def area(self):
return self.width * self.height

##DErived class 2

class Circle(Shape):
def __init__(self,radius):
self.radius=radius

def area(self):
return 3.14*self.radius *self.radius

## Fucntion that demonstrates polymorphism

def print_area(shape):
print(f"the area is {shape.area()}")

rectangle=Rectangle(4,5)
circle=Circle(3)

print_area(rectangle)
print_area(circle)

the area is 20
the area is 28.259999999999998

keyboard_arrow_down Polymorphism with Abstract Base Classes

Abstract Base Classes (ABCs) are used to define common methods for a group of related objects. They can enforce that derived classes
implement particular methods, promoting consistency across different implementations.

from abc import ABC,abstractmethod

## Define an abstract class


class Vehicle(ABC):
@abstractmethod
def start_engine(self):
pass

Conclusion
## Derived class 1
class Car(Vehicle):
Polymorphism is a powerful feature of OOP that allows for flexibility and integration in code design. It enables a single function to handle
def start_engine(self):
return "Car enginer started"
objects of different classes, each with its own implementation of a method. By understanding and applying polymorphism, you can create more
extensible
## Derived and maintainable
class 2 object-oriented programs.
class Motorcycle(Vehicle):
def start_engine(self):
Start coding or generate with AI.
return "Motorcycle enginer started"

# Function

def start_vehicle(vehicle):

## create objects of cAr and Motorcycle

Start coding or generate with AI.


car = Car()
motorcycle = Motorcycle()
Start coding or generate with AI.
start_vehicle(car)

Start coding or generate with AI.

Start Car
