What is the use of the virtual and override keywords?

Short answer: virtual → Marks a base class method as overridable. override → Overrides a virtual method in the derived class.

Real-world example (ShopNest)

ShopNest has a base PaymentMethod with virtual decimal Fee(). UpiPayment and CardPayment override the fee logic without changing the checkout caller.

  3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
