function overriding in c++

Hello friends, in this post today, we learn about what is function overriding in c++. so lets start...

Function overriding in c++, function overriding
Function overriding in c++


Function overriding:-

In function overriding we write the same function which is defined in base class, we write the same function in derived class with same parameter is known as function overriding.

 If base class and derived class have member functions with same name and arguments.

 If you create an object of derived class and write code to access that member function then, the member function in derived class is only invokes.

Means the member function of derived class overrides the member function of base class. This is called function overriding or method overriding in C++.


Example:

//Function overriding
#include<iostream> 
using namespace std;

class A
{
  public:
  void display()
  {
   cout<<"This is parent class"<<endl;
  }
};

class B:public A
{
   public:
   void display() // overrides the display() function of class A
   {
    cout<<"\nThis is child class"<<endl;
   }
};

int main()
{
 
 B x;
 A a;
 a.display();
 x.display(); // method of class B invokes, instead of class A
 return 0;

}

Output:-

This is parent class

This is child class


I hope that whatever information I have given in this post today, you have liked it and you have understood it.so keep learning and wait for the next post that will help you to increase your knowledge with something new information .


Thank you so much for reading. And take care about yourself and your family.

Constructor in c++

Hello friends, in this post today, we learn about  what is constructor in c++ and types of constructor . so lets start... Constructor in c++ Constructor:-   A constructor is a “special” member function which initializes the objects of class.  Constructor is used to solve problem of initialization. Properties of constructor:- Constructors are used to construct the object of the class. Constructor name must be same as class name. Constructor is invoked automatically when objects of the class are created. The constructors are always declared in the public section. If declared in the private section then objects are can only be created inside the member functions but serve no purpose. It must be an instance member function , that is, it can never be static. Constructors  do not have any return type not even void so they cannot return any value. Constructor can also be overloaded. Constructors cannot be inherited, but they can be called from the constructors of...

Function with Default arguments in c++

Hello friends, i n this post today, we learn about   Function with Default arguments in c++ .  so lets start... Function with default arguments  Function with default arguments:- In C ++ it is possible for a function not to specify all its arguments. Some of the arguments  may be specified their default values at the time of declaring the function.   Default values are specified when the function is declared. We must add default arguments from right to left. We cannot provide a default value to a particular argument in the middle of an argument list. Default arguments are useful in situations where some arguments always have the same value. For Example, passing marks. In a function with default argument, if one argument is default, all successive arguments  must be default. We cannot provide default values in the middle of the arguments or towards  l eft side. We provide few examples: 1. void fun(int x, int y = 20, int z=35); (valid) 2. void fun(int x,...

Pure virtual function in c++

Hello friends, i n this post today, we learn about what is pure virtual  function in c++ and how to use pure virtual function  in c++ .  so lets start... Pure virtual function in c++ Pure virtual function:- A pure virtual function is a function which has its body set to 0 i.e., the pure virtual function  does not have any body. A pure virtual function means ‘do nothing’ function. A function declared in a way: Syntax:- virtual void display() = 0;  is known as pure virtual function. Here = 0 does not mean that function show is equal  to 0. It simply means that the virtual function show has no body.  The pure virtual function act  as an interface and any class which inherits the class in which pure virtual function is present,  has to provide the implementation for the function show. We can say empty function. A pure virtual function has no definition relative to the base class. Programmers have to redefine pure virtual function in derived clas...
