why we use method overriding 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 is method overloading 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.
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 3: 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 reference and object
Animal b = new Dog(); // Animal reference but Dog object
a.move(); // runs the method in Animal class
b.move(); // runs the method in Dog class
}
}
