| overloading | The C++ language allows you to "overload" functions and operators Overloading is the practice of supplying more than one definition for a given function or a basic operator (+, -, =, ++, etc ) The compiler is left to pick the appropriate version of the function or operator based on the types of the arguments with which it is called The benefit of this technique is that it simplifies programming and reduces the chances of basic usage errors Instead of a confusing plethora of closely related functions, each with a different name, logically equivalent operations are grouped into a much smaller collection of "overloaded" functions and operators Overloaded operators make it possible to extend the standard C++ language in the most transparent possible way, so that existing programs can be converted simply by recompiling, with minimal source code changes | en |
