Interchangeable objects with polymorphism
Of dynamic binding you wrote, "Here's how it works." but all the next
paragraph says, "The compiler and run-time system handle all the
details; all you really need to know is that it happens and more
importantly how to design with it."
The first statement made me thirst for an explanation of dynamic binding
and the second statement made me cry out from a thirst unquenched. :-)
Please, if you are not going to explain something, don't announce that
you will. Don't introduce an explanation that isn't there. With that
kind of "explanation" I would not introduce the technoterms, dynamic
binding or polymorphism at all. Neither term helps the reader
understand what is being explained. Are they needed later on in the
book?
Besides, dynamic binding is not that hard a concept, is it? Maybe it
is simple but not useful to your target audience....
