# Java Example - Method Overloading
[ Java Example](#)
First, let's look at the definition of method overloading: If two methods have the same name but different parameters, then one method can be considered an overload of the other. The specific details are as follows:
* Method name is the same
* The parameter types and number of parameters are different
* The return type of the method can be different
* The modifiers of the method can be different
* The main method can also be overloaded
The following example demonstrates how to overload the `info` method of the `MyClass` class:
## MainClass.java File
```java
class MyClass{
int height;
MyClass(){
System.out.println("Parameterless Constructor");
height = 4;
}
MyClass(int i){
System.out.println("House height is " + i + " meters");
height = i;
}
void info(){
System.out.println("House height is " + height + " meters");
}
void info(String s){
System.out.println(s + ": House height is " + height + " meters");
}
}
public class MainClass{
public static void main(String[]args){
MyClass t = new MyClass(3);
t.info();
t.info("Overloaded Method");
//Overloaded Constructor
new MyClass();
}
}
The output of the above code is:
House height is 3 meters
House height is 3 meters
Overloaded Method: House height is 3 meters
Parameterless Constructor
