Function Overloading
With function overloading, multiple functions can have the same name with different
parameters:

Example
int myFunction(int x)
float myFunction(float x)
double myFunction(double x, double y)

Consider the following example, which have two functions that add numbers of different
type:

Example
int plusFuncInt(int x, int y) {
return x + y;
}

double plusFuncDouble(double x, double y) {


return x + y;
}
int main() {
int myNum1 = plusFuncInt(8, 5);
double myNum2 = plusFuncDouble(4.3, 6.26);
cout << "Int: " << myNum1 << "\n";
cout << "Double: " << myNum2;
return 0;
}

Instead of defining two functions that should do the same thing, it is better to overload
one.

In the example below, we overload the plusFunc function to work for both int and
double :

Example
int plusFunc(int x, int y) {
return x + y;
}

double plusFunc(double x, double y) {


return x + y;
}

int main() {
int myNum1 = plusFunc(8, 5);
double myNum2 = plusFunc(4.3, 6.26);
cout << "Int: " << myNum1 << "\n";
cout << "Double: " << myNum2;
return 0;
}

Note: Multiple functions can have the same name as long as the number and/or type
of parameters are different.
