Let's now explore an example about people working in a company to show multiple dispatch in action. Let's define an abstract type Employee and a type Developer that is a subtype:
abstract type Employeeendmutable struct Developer <: Employee name::String iq favorite_lang::Stringend
We cannot make objects from an abstract type: calling Employee() only returns an ERROR: MethodError: no constructors have been defined for Employee error message.
The type Developer has two implicit constructors, but we can define another outer constructor, which uses a default constructor as follows:
Developer(name, iq) = Developer(name, iq, "Java")
Outer constructors provide additional convenient methods to construct objects. Now, we ...
