Which statement about constructors in Object-Oriented Programming languages such as C++ or Java is correct?

A constructor is a special member function that is automatically called whenever a new object of a class is instantiated, used to initialize the object's state. It always shares the same name as the class and, unlike regular methods, does not have any return type — not even void. Constructors can be overloaded (a class can have multiple constructors with different parameter lists, including a no-argument default constructor), and while derived classes can call a base class's constructor, constructors themselves are not inherited or overridden the way normal member functions are.
