Method overloading happens in class with same method name but by modifying below features
1> By changing number of parameters
2> By changing ordinal position of parameter , i mean to say here is by changing datatype place.
And method overriding happens in two or more than two class , i mean defining same method declaration without any modification within two class and among of that two class , one class must extend another class and further also you can override this method , and this procedure continues till one subclass leaves overriding this method.
