In order to use dynamic binding, a member function of a class needs to be declared as a(n) ______ function.
Suppose that you need to have a class that can sort an array in ascending order or descending order upon request. If an array is already sorted in ascending or descending order, you can easily sort it the other way by reversing it. Now suppose you have two different classes that encapsulate arrays. One provides a member function to reverse its array, while the other provides a member function to sort its array, Can you use multiple inheritance to obtain a quick solution to your problem? Should you? Write a couple of paragraphs explaining whether using multiple inheritance will or will not work to solve this problem, and, if it can, whether this is a good way to solve the problem.
