You use virtual functions when you want to override a
certain behavior(read method) for your derived class than
the one implemented for the Base class and you want to do so
at run-time through an pointer to Base class.

The classical example is when you have a base class called
Shape and concrete shapes(classes) which derive from it.
Each concrete class overrirdes(implements a virtual method)
called Draw().

The class hierarchy as follows:

Class hierarchy

The following snippet shows the usage of the example, it
creates an array of Shape class pointers wherein each points
to distinct derived class object. At run-time invoking
Draw() method results in calling of the method overriden by
that derived class and the particular Shape is drawn(rather
rendered).

Shape *basep[] = { &line_obj, &tri_obj,
&rect_obj, &cir_obj};
for (i = 0; i < NO_PICTURES; i++)
basep[i] -> Draw ();

The above program just uses the pointer to the Base class
storing addresses of the Derived class objects provides a
loose coupling in the way that the program does not have to
change drastically if a new concrete derived class of shape
is added anytime because the are minimal code segments which
actually use(depend) on the concrete Shape type.

The above is a good example of Open Closed Principle of the
famous SOLID design principles.

any "C" function by default returns an a) int value b) float value c) char value d) a & b

2) Write a program that will help Air Traffic Control for an airport to view the sequence of flights ready for take-off. The airport can accommodate 10 flights waiting for take-off at any point in time. Each flight has a unique 3 digit numeric identifier. &#61550; Each time a flight takes-off, Air Traffic Control adds a flight to the waitlist. Each time a flight is added to the waitlist, the list of flights waiting to take-off must be displayed. &#61550; When a flight is cleared for take-off, Air Traffic Control removes the flight from the waitlist. Each time a flight takes-off, the list of flights waiting to take-off must be displayed. &#61550; Sequence of take-off is the sequence of addition to the waitlist
