4. Method Overloading Method overloading  means writing two are or more methods in the same class by using same method name, but passing the parameters is different. Overloading is the practice of supplying more than one definition for a given method name in the same class. The compiler will automatically select the most appropriate one based on the arguments with which it is called.

9. Advantages of method overloading It allows you to use the same name for a group of methods that basically have the same purpose. It provides an easy way to handle default parameter value.  Assume that a method has one required parameter and two optional parameters. Three overloaded forms of this method can be defined. It can accept one, two or three parameters.
