The following program is Overloading or Overriding? public class PolymorphismEx { public int samp..

Answer / hemanth

Its Neither Overloading nor overriding, Because for Overloading there should some Variation in argument list and for overriding the return type(if Primitive) should be same.
int method(int a)
{
}
String method(int a)
{
}
arguments should be different for overloading
return type should be same(if primitive) for overriding

so its improper which results in compile time error.
