Please tell us what is the difference between Override and Overload in a method?
Answer:
Override is to overwrite the method with the same signature (parameters and return type) but different functionality. Overwriting requires a “virtual” declaration of the method.
On the other hand, overloading refers to coding several versions of the same method. Though the “virtual” declaration for a method is not necessary to overload, it requires a different signature (parameters and/or return value).
