And he seems incabable of spelling his own name the same two times in succession.

References are generated at compile time, However the binding to the methods takes place at runtime.
And that exactly is what dynamic polymorphism is all about, since the compiler is not statically binding the methods to the references at compile time.

come on guys, leave the poor guy alone, after all he just wants to learn a little bit of polymorphism, I must say that sometimes for newbies these concepts are a little overwhelming, not to mention that I have met quite a few experienced developers having no clue of this subject.

Okay, I appologise. But if I don't understand a concept, I would do a little research first then perhaps ask a specific question.

And maybe then consider going for an interview
I'm was thinking this chap just wants a pat answer he can regurgitate at an interview.
Then I had this literal image of someone writing on a small piece of paper then swallowing the paper.
"What do you know of dynamic polymorphism"? Turns and discreetly retches
up paper. (Smoothing out paper) "In the Java language, polymorphism is
achieved by..."
