Function Operator Overloading Notes

The document explains function overloading and operator overloading in C++. Function overloading allows multiple functions with the same name but different parameters, while operator overloading enables redefining operators for user-defined types. It also highlights the differences between the two concepts, including their usage and type of polymorphism.

Detailed Notes: Function Overloading & Operator

Overloading (C++)

1. Function Overloading
Function overloading allows multiple functions with the same name but different parameter lists. It is
a compile-time polymorphism.

Example:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class Math {
public:
int add(int a, int b) {
return a + b;
}

double add(double a, double b) {


return a + b;
}
};

int main() {
Math m;
cout << [Link](2,3) << endl;
cout << [Link](2.5,3.5) << endl;
return 0;
}

2. Operator Overloading
Operator overloading allows redefining operators for user-defined types to give special meaning.

Example:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class Number {
int value;

public:
Number(int v) { value = v; }

Number operator+(Number n) {
return Number(value + [Link]);
}

void display() {
cout << value << endl;
}
};

int main() {
Number n1(10), n2(20);
Number n3 = n1 + n2;
[Link]();
return 0;
}
