Interview Q&A / Object-Oriented Programming

1. What is the difference between method overloading and method overriding?

   Overloading means several methods in the same class share a name but take different parameters, and the compiler picks one. Overriding means a subclass gives its own version of a method it inherited, with the same signature, and the JVM picks the version at runtime based on the actual object.

   Duck typing means an object is accepted if it has the methods you call, regardless of its class. It gives polymorphism without a shared parent or interface.
