C sharp - Method Overloading in C#

Definition:
Method overloading in C# means defining multiple methods in the same class with the same name but different parameters (type, number, or order).

 Why Use Method Overloading?

  • Improves readability and code reusability.

  • Allows calling the same method in different ways based on input.

Example:

class Calculator {
    public int Add(int a, int b) {
        return a + b;
    }

    public double Add(double a, double b) {
        return a + b;
    }

    public int Add(int a, int b, int c) {
        return a + b + c;
    }
}
Calculator calc = new Calculator();
Console.WriteLine(calc.Add(2, 3));        // Uses int version
Console.WriteLine(calc.Add(2.5, 3.5));    // Uses double version
Console.WriteLine(calc.Add(1, 2, 3));     // Uses 3-parameter version
