How to use "Overriding" in context?
Overriding is a term used in programming that means overriding a function with a different or more specific definition. It is a way of customizing or altering the behavior of a program without having to modify the source code.
The most common use for overriding is when a module needs to do something that is specific to a particular operating system, version of the software, or hardware configuration. Overriding allows the module to do whatever is necessary to support these unique situations.
Overriding can also be used when a function is not performing as expected. By overriding it, you can change the function's behavior to match your needs.
