METHOD OVERLOADING

In same class, if name of the method remains common but the number and type of parameters are different, then it is called method overloading.

Example:

void sum(int a, int b)
 {
  System.out.println("Int: Sum of "+a+" and "+b+" is "+(a+b));
 }
 
 void sum(float a, float b)
 {
  System.out.println("Float: Sum of "+a+" and "+b+" is "+(a+b));
 }
 
 void sum(String a, String b)
 {
  System.out.println(a+" "+b);
 }

One takes int value, other takes float value and the 3rd takes two string values as parameters.

Another Example:
class overLoading

{
   public static void main(String[] args)

  {

   functionOverload obj = new functionOverload();

   obj.add(1,2);
   obj.add(\"Life at \", \"?\");
   obj.add(11.5, 22.5);

   }
}

class functionOverload
 {
   /*  void add(int a, int b)             // 1 - A method with two parameters
     {

        int sum = a + b;
        System.out.println(\"Sum of a+b is \"+sum);

     }    */

     void add(int a, int b, int c)       {

        int sum = a + b + c;
        System.out.println(\"Sum of a+b+c is \"+sum);

     }

     void add(double a, double b)             {

        double sum = a + b;
        System.out.println(\"Sum of a+b is \"+sum);
     }

     void add(String s1, String s2)

     {
       String s = s1+s2;
       System.out.println(s);
     }
}
