Introduction to Polymorphism in Python

Polymorphism, a core concept in object-oriented


programming (OOP), allows a single interface to represent
different underlying forms (data types or classes).
In Python, it refers to the ability of a function, method, or
operator to behave differently based on the object it acts
upon.
🔑 Why Polymorphism?
Promotes code flexibility
Simplifies code maintenance
Enhances readability

Polymorphism Through Functions
A single function can handle different
types of objects.

Polymorphism Through Methods in Classes
Different classes can define methods with
the same name, enabling polymorphism.

Polymorphism With Inheritance
Using inheritance, child classes can override parent class
methods while maintaining the same method name.

Polymorphism With Abstract Base Classes
Abstract Base Classes (ABCs) enforce polymorphism by
requiring derived classes to implement specific methods.

Operator Overloading
Python supports polymorphism through operator overloading,
where operators behave differently depending on their operands.
