The Western Ohio CISM Team is a volunteer based organization providing peer support to public safety agencies, educational institutions, industry, and others who have experienced some form of critical incident.
Polymorphism, in C#, is the ability of objects of different types to provide a unique interface for different implementations of methods. It is usually used in the context of late binding, where the behavior of an object to respond to a call to its method members is determined based on object type at run time. Polymorphism enables redefining methods in derived classes.
One part of polymorphism is the ability for a method to behave differently according to the types and number of parameters that are passed to it. This is achieved through method overloading. Method overloading allows the programmer to define many methods with the same name but with a different set of parameters.
