Question

In the following code,in the line labled Here,Can we call this as method overloading? I also have a doubt whether it is possible to overload a method of super class, in subclass?
class A
     public void calculate( int x, int y ){
          System.out.println(x+" "+y);
class B extends A
     B(){
          super();
     public void calculate( int x, float y ){          //Here
          System.out.println("in B "+x+" "+y);
     public static void main(String args[]){
          new A().calculate(1,2);
          new B().calculate(1,2.0f);
};

Answer 1

Generally speaking there can be non-trivial issues though.
In this C++ example the method foo(int) hides the method foo() of its parent class.
class a {
public:
void foo();
class b : public a {
public:
void foo(int i);
int main(int argc,char *argv[]) {
b* w = new b();
//     w->foo();     // does not compile
     w->a::foo();     // does compile
}
