Hide a Method with new
Hide a Method with new
Thenewkeyword HIDES an inherited method instead of overriding it. With hiding, the reference type (not the object type) decides which method runs.Basehas a plain methodShow()returningBase. InDerived, hide it usingnewso it returnsDerived. Do NOT write aMainmethod. The tester callsShow()through aDerivedvariable and then through aBasevariable pointing to the same object, so the program prints the output shown in Expected Output.
Expected Output:
Derived Base
= newline. The output ends with a newline — print one after the last line.
