 Introduction

When one task is performed by different ways is

known as polymorphism. In java, we can achieve
Polymorphism by:

Method Overloading

Method Overriding
 Method Overloading

In method overloading, a class has multiple

methods with same name but different parameters.
we can achieve method overloading by changing
parameter types or by changing the number of
parameters. Method overloading increases the
readability of the program.
 Method Overloading
class Addition
{
int sum;
void sum(int a, int b)
{
sum=a+b;
System.out.println("Sum is:" + sum);
}
void sum(int a, int b, int c)
{
sum=a+b+c;
System.out.println("Sum is:" + sum);
}
}
 Method Overloading

class Demo
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Addition obj=new Addition();
obj.sum(10,12);
obj.sum(16, 19,30);
}
}
 Method Overriding

In method overriding, super class and sub class

having methods with same name and same
parameters but having different implementations. It is
mainly used to provide the specific implementation of
a method which is already defined in its super class. It
is used to achieve run-time polymorphism.
 Method Overriding

class Super
{

void display()
{

System.out.println("I am super class");

}

}
 Method Overriding

class Sub extends Super

{
void display()
{
System.out.println("I am sub class");
}

public static void main(String args[])

{
Sub obj=new Sub();
obj.display();
}
}
