In programming, what do you call functions with the same name but different implementations?

  • Inheriting
  • Overriding
  • Abstracting
  • Overloading
Explanation

In programming, when there are multiple functions with the same name but different implementations based on the number, order, or types of arguments they accept, this is called overloading. Overloading allows developers to have flexibility in their code by providing different functionalities for a single function name, making it easier to use and understand. The programming language determines which overloaded function to call based on the arguments provided during the function call, ensuring the appropriate implementation is executed.
