Method Overloading in C#

When you define multiple methods in a class with the same name but with different parameter lists. This method parameter must differ in the numbers, types, and order of parameters. It is called method overloading. Method overloading is a form of polymorphism.

Method Overloading in C#

Syntax of method overloading:

The below is syntax of the use of method overloading in C#:

Example

public class FruitUtility
{
  // Method with no parameters
  public int AddFruitPrice()
  {
  return 0;
  }

  // Method with two integer parameters
  public int AddFruitPrice(int price1, int price2)
  {
  return price1 + price2;
  }

  // Method with three double parameters
  public double AddFruitPrice(double price1, double price2, double price3)
  {
  return price1 + price2 + price3;
  }

  // Method with a different parameter type
  public string AddFruitPrice(string a, string b)
  {
  return a +" "+ b;
  }
}

In this example, we have a FruitUtility class with multiple AddFruitPrice methods, each having a different parameter list. Here are some key points about method overloading:

1. Method Signature:

The method signature consists of the method name and the parameter list (including the parameter names and their data types). Method overloads must differ in…
