What is the difference between Overloading and Overriding?

Comment

When you have two methods of the same name but having different properties, the case is called Overloading. On the other hand, Overriding refers to a situation where two methods with the same name and properties occur, but the two occurring in a parent and child class respectively.

Method Overloading 
Method overloading is providing two separate methods in a class 
with the same name but different arguments, while the method return type 
may or may not be different, which allows us to reuse the same method name.
1) Method Overloading occurs with in the same
class
2) Since it involves with only one class inheritance
is not involved.
3)In overloading return type need not be the same 
4) Parameters must be different when we do
overloading
5) Static polymorphism can be acheived using
method overloading
6) In overloading one method can’t hide the
another

Method Overriding
Overriding means same method name and same parameter, 
occur in different class that has inheritance relationship. 
we use method overriding to implement specific functionality to the method.
1) Method Overriding occurs between
two classes superclass and subclass
2) Since method overriding occurs between superclass
and subclass inheritance is involved.
3) In overriding return type must be same.
4) Parameters must be same.
5) Dynamic polymorphism can be acheived using
method overriding.
6) In overriding subclass method hides that of the
superclass method
