polymorphism

Polymorphism

This is where a method responds in a different way depending upon the context (e.g. it might depend what data type gets passed to it - string comparrison is different to number comparison).

A dog drinks and a human drinks. The drink method for a human is very different (hopefully) to that of the drink method for a dog.
