Answer / kananatha kowsik.r
Polymorphism is a greek word.'Poly' means many.'Morphism'
means programs.'Polymorphism' many programs.That means by
calling many forms or many programs using one interface.By
using polymorphism we can achieve overloading and overriding.
Types of polymorphism.
1.Compile time polymorphism or late bind polymorphism
2.Run time polymorphism or early bind polymorphism or
dynamic polymorphism.
1.Compile time polymorphism:
The polymorphism which is created at compile time or
late bind is called compile time polymorphism.
Example: Function overloading, Operator overloading.
2.Runt time polymorphism:
The polymorphism which is created at run time or late
bind or dynamically is called run time polymorphism.
Example: Abstract class, Virtual function.

How do you compile the source code with your compiler?
class Alpha { public: char data[10000]; Alpha(); ~Alpha(); }; class Beta { public: Beta() { n = 0; } void FillData(Alpha a); private: int n; }; How do you make the above sample code more efficient? a) If possible, make the constructor for Beta private to reduce the overhead of public constructors. b) Change the return type in FillData to int to negate the implicit return conversion from "int" to "void". c) Make the destructor for Alpha virtual. d) Make the constructor for Alpha virtual. e) Pass a const reference to Alpha in FillData
