Runtime polymorphism or Dynamic Method Dispatch is a process in which a call to an overridden method is resolved at runtime rather than compile-time. In this process, an overridden method is called through the reference variable of a superclass.

Because objects are not created until runtime. Therefore, dynamic polymorphism (method overriding) is best resolved at runtime.
