Where did the term "polymorphism" come from?
605
It comes from the greek roots "poly" (many) and "morphe" (form). A polymorphic object can take on many forms (it can be represented by a pointer to any of its ancestor classes). A polymorphic function can also take on many forms (it can be made to operate on objects that are actually of different types).
