Chapter: Inheritance Last Updated: 20-07-2016 03:21:29 UTC

Program:

            /* ............... START ............... */
                
public class JavaMethodOverloading {
	void val(int a, int b) {
		System.out.println(a + b);
	}

	void val(int a, int b, int c) {
		System.out.println(a + b + c);
	}

	public static void main(String args[]) {
		JavaMethodOverloading obj = new JavaMethodOverloading();
		obj.val(10,20,30);
		obj.val(20, 20);

	}
}
                /* ............... END ............... */
        

Output

Notes:

• If a class have multiple methods by same name but different parameters,it is known as Method Overloading.
• Method overloading is one of the ways through which java supports polymorphism.
• If two or more method have same name and same parameter list but differs in return type are not said to be overloaded method.
