Polymorphism

Question 19

bundling up data and member function (Method) together into a single unit

it can only be achieve if there is PRIVATE variable in a class and the other classes has no access to the variable and can be access through class method.

it is mostly use for security purposes.

sometimes called “information hiding”

Answer 19

Encapsulation

it works together with Encapsulation

Answer 20

Abstraction

Question 21

Heirarchical Inheritance

Question 23

Answer 23

Polymorphism

Question 24

Answer 24
