Greetings! In today's lesson, we'll unravel the concept of polymorphism in Python's Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). Grasping polymorphism enables us to use a single entity (a method, class, or interface) to represent different types in various scenarios. Let's proceed.

Polymorphism, a pillar of OOP, allows one object to embody multiple forms. Visualize a button in software; depending on its type (for instance, a submit button or a radio button), the action resulting from pressing it varies. This dynamic encapsulates the spirit of polymorphism!

Let's observe polymorphism in action within a simple application involving shapes. The base Shape class has an area method, which calculates the area for shapes. This method is uniquely implemented in the subclasses Rectangle and Circle.

Here, polymorphism shines as the area function takes on multiple forms and behaves differently depending on whether it's part of a or a .
