How is a stereotype different from a prototype?

Answer:
A stereotype is giving a name and identity to a group of people (for instance, Chavs, Gangsters, Hoodies). Mostly, these are false.


A prototype is a pre-release model of something. For instance, a car may have several prototypes made before it's release, each prototype contributing to the final product.
