In Perl, you cannot directly implement function overloading like some other programming languages such as C++ or Java. However, you can achieve a similar effect using subroutine renaming and polymorphism. You can create multiple subroutines with the same name but different numbers and types of arguments, and then use Perl's dynamic dispatch mechanism to call the correct subroutine based on the argument list provided.
