Overloading and Overriding

[nadim123]

Overloading

Overloading is when you define two method with same name in the same class, distinguished by their signature

Overriding

Overriding is when you redefine a method that has been already defined in a parent class

 

[DIT India]

Overloading and Overriding both re totally different. Overloading means when we use same function name for different argument number or types.It is useful to achieve polymorphism. Overriding means when we reimplement a function of a super class in a sub class so that inside the sub class only new definition is used.

 

[rafijaan]

overloading is a feature found in programming languages which allows you to create many methods with same name which differ in input and the output

Overriding, which is used in object oriented program,it's feature that allows a subclass to provide a specific implementation that is already provided by its parent classes.

Overloading is when you have multiple methods in the same scope, with the same name but different signatures.


Overriding is a principle that allows you to change the functionality of a method in a child class.
