Polymorphism is a core object-oriented programming concept allowing objects of different classes to be treated through a common interface, with each class providing its own implementation of shared methods. Software developers use polymorphism to write flexible, extensible code, such as having different shapes each implement their own 'draw' method while being called uniformly by other code.
