Answer / jyothsna
2 or more procedures or functions are called overloaded when
a) They have the same names
b) Different no of formal parameters defined
c) Formal parameters differ in their datatypes/Subtypes and
not in the same family
d) They belong to same subprogram/package/PL SQL Block
They are not overloaded when
a) Any of the above points are not satisfied
b) RETURN datatype alone differs and not the formal
parameters
The main purpose of overloading procedures is that, when a
PL SQL block is found to do a same operation with different
inputs, we names them same and feed different parameters
