Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 5.1, Problem 5.3CP
Explanation of Solution
Methods:
A collection of statements which are formed together to perform an operation is called as methods.
- The main advantage of using method is reusability of code and reduces the size of the program, because a method can be called for multiple numbers of times.
Method header:
The method header is the part of the method definition which holds the modifier, return type of the method, method name and the parameter list.
public static double findArea(double a, double b)
In the above example, the method “findArea()” holds the return type double and the parameters “a” and “b” and should not have a semicolon at the end.
Method call:
The statement which causes the method to execute is referred as method call.
- A method can be called by name of the method and the return type should not be specified before the method call...

If two methods in the same class have the same name, which is true? (choose one)
They must have a different number of parameters
They must have different return types
They must have different parameter type lists
The compiler must generate an error message
Method Overloading is a feature that allows a class to have two or more methods having
same name, if their argument lists are different. Argument lists could differ in:
1. Number of parameters.
2. Data type of parameters.
3. Sequence of Data type of parameters.
Write different version of method sum() that display the sum of the values received as
parameter according to the following main method content:
public static void main(String[] args)
{
sum ( 10, 10 );
sum ( 10, 10, 10 );
sum ( 10.0, 10.0 );
sum ( 10, 10.0 );
sum ( 10.0, 10);
}
You have to define five functions with the specified types. Then, demonstrate the Argument
Promotion concept by reducing the number of method to two.
