Its kind of overriding, but the program will give compilation
error. why because Overriding cannot be possible within the
same class. or Duplicate method cannot possible within the
same class.

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.
