AIM: Programs on method and constructor overloading

THEORY:

Method Overloading:

Method overloading is a feature in Java that allows a class to define multiple methods with
the same
name but different parameter lists (type, number, or order of parameters).
It is an example of compile-time polymorphism, where the method to be executed is
determined at
compile time.

Key Points:

● Methods must differ in parameters.


● Return type can be same or different.
● Improves code readability and reusability.
Constructor Overloading:
Constructor overloading allows a class to have more than one constructor with different
parameter
lists. This enables different ways of initializing objects.

Key Points:

● All constructors must have the same name as the class.


● Each constructor must differ in number/type/order of parameters.
● Useful for setting default and custom values.

PROGRAM CODE:

[Link] Overloading:

class Calculator {
int substract(int a, int b) {
return a - b;
}

int substract(int x, int y, int z) {


return x - y - z;
}

double substract(double a, double b) {


return a - b;
}
}

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) {
Calculator calc = new Calculator();

[Link]("Difference(int, int): " + [Link](50, 40));


[Link]("Difference(int, int, int): " + [Link](100, 30, 40));
[Link]("Difference(double, double): " + [Link](30.5, 20.8));
}
}

ii . Constructor Overloading:

public class Person


{
// Declaring a non-parameterized constructor.
Person() {
[Link]("Introduction:");
}
// Declaring one parameterized constructor.
Person(String name){
[Link]("Name: " +name);
}
// Declaring two parameterized constructor.
Person(String clgname, int rollNo) {
[Link]("Clgname: "+clgname+ ", "+"Roll no:"+rollNo);
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// JVM will call constructor depending on arguments passed.
Person p1 = new Person(); // calling with zero argument.
Person p2 = new Person("Anuradha"); // calling with one argument.
Person p3 = new Person("Datta Meghe College of Engineering,19); // calling with two
arguments.
}
}
OUTPUT:

CONCLUSION:
Method and constructor overloading provide flexibility and enhance code maintainability.
They allow Java programs to use the same name for multiple operations or object
initializations, based on input parameters
