How do I override methods in Python classes

In Python, you can override methods in a subclass by defining a method with the same name as the one in the parent class. This allows you to provide a specific implementation for the subclass while still maintaining the interface of the parent class.

Here's an example of method overriding in Python:


class Animal:
    def speak(self):
        return "Animal speaks"

class Dog(Animal):
    def speak(self):
        return "Dog barks"

# Usage
animal = Animal()
dog = Dog()

print(animal.speak())  # Output: Animal speaks
print(dog.speak())     # Output: Dog barks
