what is Overloading in java code example
Example 1: what is method overloading and method overriding in Java?
Method overloading is providing two separate methods in a class with the same name but different arguments, while the method return type may or may not be different, which allows us to reuse the same method name.
Method overriding means defining a method in a child class that is already defined in the parent class with the same method signature, same name, arguments, and return type
Example 2: What's method overloading
Overloading mean same method name and different parameter,
it can happen in same class. it's a feature that
allows us to have more than one method with same name.
Example: sort method of Arrays class
Arrays.sort(int[] arr)
Arrays.sort(String[] arr)
....
Method overloading improves the reusability and readability.
and it's easy to remember
(one method name instead of remembering multiple method names)

In my framework==
I use implicit wait in Selenium. Implicit wait
is an example of overloading. In Implicit wait
we use different time stamps such as SECONDS, MINUTES, HOURS etc.,
A class having multiple methods with
same name but different parameters
is called Method Overloading
Example 5: program for method overloading in java
class Calculate
{
void sum (int a, int b)
{
System.out.println("sum is"+(a+b)) ;
}
void sum (float a, float b)
{
System.out.println("sum is"+(a+b));
}
Public static void main (String[] args)
{
Calculate cal = new Calculate();
cal.sum (8,5);
cal.sum (4.6f, 3.8f);
}
}
Example 6: overriding in java
class Animal {
public void move() {
System.out.println("Animals can move");
}
}
class Dog extends Animal {
public void move() {
System.out.println("Dogs can walk and run");
}
}
public class TestDog {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Animal a = new Animal();
Animal b = new Dog();
a.move();
b.move();
}
}
