    Question

    What will be the output of the following code snippet?

    class Animal:

        def sound(self):

            return "Some sound"

    class Dog(Animal):

        def sound(self):

            return "Bark"

    dog = Dog()

    print(dog.sound())

    A Some sound Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Bark Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Dog Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Animal Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    This code demonstrates inheritance in object-oriented programming. The Dog class inherits from the Animal class. The Animal class has a method sound that returns "Some sound", while the Dog class overrides this method to return "Bark". When an instance of Dog is created and dog.sound() is called, the overridden method in Dog is executed, yielding "Bark". Why Other Options Are Wrong: A) Some sound: This option is incorrect because it represents the output of the sound method from the Animal class, which is overridden in the Dog class. C) Dog: This option is incorrect because it does not correspond to any return value from the sound method; it is not a valid method output. D) None: This option is incorrect as it implies that the sound method does not return anything, which is not true; it returns "Bark". E) Animal: This option is incorrect because it does not represent the output of any method in the code.
