Question

I am attempting to learn three different computer languages. Python, Java, and C++. 

I study Udemy courses to help myself understand concepts for each of these languages. I know that placing the main function at the bottom of a program is better for C++ languages. Is this true for every language? Is having the main function at the bottom of the program a top down or bottom up style?

I am struggling with understanding method overloading. How is this top down, or vice versa, style of programming better for method overloading? Method overloading is still a bit of a puzzle to me.

In a python course on Udemy I was told that the compiler starts at the very end of the program feeding the data from the bottom end first before it translates. This is why bottom up is better for overloading, right?

Step 1: Define Python, Java, and C++

Python: Python is known for its readability and simplicity, making it a top choice for tasks like web development and data analysis. Its extensive library support and vibrant community contribute to its popularity.

Java: Java's platform independence and strong emphasis on object-oriented programming make it a go-to language for building cross-platform applications, including web, mobile, and enterprise software. It's also the primary language for Android app development.

C++: C++ is a performance-driven language used in demanding applications like game development and system programming. It combines the power of C with object-oriented features, offering fine-grained control over memory and system resources.
