Answer
A constructor initializes new objects. Frame the concept in practical terms so you can explain it during interview discussion.
Constructors are special methods in a class that are called when an object of the class is created. They initialize the new object, setting up initial values for fields or performing any setup required. In an e-commerce application, a `Product` constructor might initialize the product's name and price when it's added to the inventory.
