Inheritance-based polymorphism (i.e. the ability to decide what the object type is at run-time, from any type in your inheritance hierarchy) is a powerful tool. That said, with great power comes great responsibility to ensure the right member functions are then called from the instantiated type. The keywords 'virtual' and 'override' in C++ (override being available in modern C++) enable 'dynamic dispatch' (the ability to choose the correct member function at runtime) to work. ►YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/MikeShah ►Please like and subscribe to help the channel!
