    Polymorphism means one interface, many forms. In functions, it means one function name works with different data types.
  2. Step 2: Match with options

    Using the same function name to handle different data types describes using the same function name to handle different types, which is polymorphism through functions.
  3. Final Answer:

    Using the same function name to handle different data types -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Polymorphism through functions = Using same function name for different types [OK]
Quick Trick: Same function name, different data types means polymorphism [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Thinking polymorphism means different function names
