We can overload all the C++ operators except the following: Class members access operator (. , .*) Scope resolution operator ( : : ) Size operator(sizeof) Conditional operator ( ? : ) Although the semantics of an operator can be extended, we can’t change its syntax, the grammatical rules that govern its use such as the no of operands precedence and associativity.…

Polymorphism is subdivided in two concepts Compile Time( static) polymorphism and Run…
