Answer / esha prasad

Over loading is polymorphism implementation in same class,
where two or more methods can share same name differing in
parameters passed.
Overriding is polymorphism implementation in different
classes having parent child relationship and the
funtionality in parent class is over shadowed by the
funtionality in subclass.

Answer / arthi

overloading means same method name but different parameters
are passed but overriding means same method name with same
parameters passed in different classes.

Answer / rakesh

Overloading class has different returntype.
overloading comes with in class but overriding comes in two
classes.
Overloading is resolved at compiletime
Overriding is resolved at runtime.

Answer / priyanka patil

Function Overloading
class A
{
int show(int a,float b)
float show(int a,int b)//different prototype can valid but
as per parameters they called
}
Function overriding
class A
{
int show(int a)
};
class B : public A
{
int show(int a)//function prototype of base class fun n
derived class function must be same
}

Answer / varun

overloading : can only be done by changing the type or no.
of parameters for eg:a(int a);
a(int a,int b);


while in case of overriding we can give new definition
without changing the parameters.

Answer / ravikant baluni

Method overloading:
-------------------
Method overloading means having two or
more methods with the same name but different signatures in
the same scope. These two methods may exist in the same
class or anoter one in base class and another in derived
class.

Like if we have a method: void sum(int a,int b){---} then
it can be overloaded as:
void sum(int a,int b,int c);
void sum(string s1,string s2);

Method overriding:
------------------
Method overriding means having a
different implementation of the same method in the
inherited class. These two methods would have the same
signature, but different implementation. One of these would
exist in the base class and another in the derived class.
These cannot exist in the same class.

Like if we have a method: int fun(int a,int b){---} then it
can be overrided as:
int fun(int a,int b)
{
return (a+b);
}



int fun(int a,int b)
{
return (a*b);
}


int fun(int a,int b)
{
return (a/b);
}

Answer / kabita

overriding is only possible in case of inheritance,bt
overloading is possible incase of both inheritance & same
class.
class A
{
public int add();
public float sub();
public float multi(float a,float b){}
public double div(double d,double e){}
}
class B extends A
{
public int add(int a,int b){}//must be same as declared in
super class
public float sub(float a,float b){}//must be same name same
returntype same as declared
public float multi(float a,float b,float c){}

}

Answer / ketan gambhir

Overloading:-in overloading,we can use same name of method
and constructor with different parameters in same class.
For Exa:-
\\Both methods has different declaration and definition.
class A
{
public int same(int a int b)
{
return a+b;
}
public void same()
{
System.out.println("ketan");
}
}
Overriding:-In overriding,we can use same method and
constructor with same parameters in different classes.
For Exp:-
class A
{
public void same()
{
System.out.println("same1");
}
}
class B
{
public void same()
{
System.out.println("ketan");
}
}

Answer / mariyappan

overloading is the process of defining the same function
with different parameters.which can be defined within class.
overriding is the process of defining the function name in
the more than one classes.

Answer / suman

OVERRIDING – when you extend a class and write a method in
the derived class which is exactly similar to the one
present in the base class, it is termed as overriding.


Example:

public class BaseClass{

public void methodToOverride()

{

//Some code here

}

}

public class DerivedClass extends BaseClass{

public void methodToOverride()

{

//Some new code here

}

}

As you can see, in the class DerivedClass, we have
overridden the method present in the BaseClass with a
completely new piece of code in the DerivedClass.

What that effectively means is that if you create an object
of DerivedClass and call the methodToOverride() method, the
code in the derivedClass will be executed. If you hadn’t
overridden the method in the DerivedClass then the method
in the BaseClass would have been called.

OVERLOADING - when you have more than one method with the
same name but different arguments, the methods are said to
be overloaded.


Example:

public class OverLoadingExample{

public void add(int i, int j)

{

int k = i + j;

}

public void add(String s, String t)

{

int k = Integer.parseInt(s) + Integer.parseInt(t);

}

}

As you can see in the example above, we have the same
method add() taking two parameters but with different data
types. Due to overloading we can now call the add method by
either passing it a String or int
