Polymorphism

• char* ptr1; struct timeval* ptr2;char** ptr3;…return1st(ptr1,ptr2); return1st(ptr2,ptr3)

• Both calls match the previous function declaration

• This is solved (basically) by giving return1st a richer type and instantiating it at every call site

  • (c ref?, d) ?? c ref?
  • (e ref?, f) ?? e ref?
