Which of the following method signatures correctly demonstrates method overloading in Java?

class Example {
    void compute(int a) {}
    void compute(double a) {}
    void compute(int a, int b) {}
    void compute(int a) throws Exception {}
}
AMethods differing only by return type are valid overloads
BAll methods are valid overloads
CMethods differing only by exception type are valid overloads
DMethods with identical signatures but different return types are valid overloads
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check method signatures

    Overloading requires different parameter lists.
  2. Step 2: Analyze given methods

    Methods differ by parameter types/count; exception differences don't affect overloading.
  3. Final Answer:

    All methods are valid overloads -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Different parameters or exceptions allowed in overloading [OK]
Quick Trick: Overloading requires different parameters, exceptions allowed [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Thinking return type alone differentiates overloads
  • Assuming exceptions affect overloading
