Java Programming Basics: Runtime Polymorphism

by Gurunath Kalamadi

When learning Java, your understanding of basic concepts has to be sound. In particular, I have identified a set of five concepts that any Java professional must understand to be successful:

  1. Object orientation
  2. Runtime Polymorphism
  3. Interfaces
  4. IO Streams
  5. Event Handling

In a series of articles titled Java Programming Basics, I take up each of these concepts individually to provide beginners (as well as experienced software engineers wanting to diversify their skill set) with a strong foundation of basic Java knowledge through compact explanations and practical examples. This second article in the series covers runtime polymorphism.
