Answer Posted / ketan shekhawat
Overloading and Overiding are pratical implementation of OOPs Concept.
Overloading:
In Simple words, Same function name but different signature(Parameters)
For Example:
To Add 2 integers Add(int i, int j)
To add two string Add(string i, string j)
Depending on the signature(parameters) of the calling function, respective function would be called. if you pass 2 string parameter second function would be called and if you pass two integer parameter first function would be called.
Overriding(Polyphormism):
Same Function Name, same signature, different functionality.
Example for overriding
Class Shapes { Virtual void Paint() }
Class Circle:Shapes { Override void Paint() }
Class Square:Shapes { Override void Paint() }
Here in the above code we can see that the shapes is class which has a method Paint, which would paint according to the shape of the object each object would implement the paint method differently based on its dimensions.
