You have to wait a little bit until you can give the person brainiest. You mostly give it to someone who gave a great answer. :)
They are arranged the way they are because of the QWERTY layout. It was used to slow down how people typed so they wouldn't get the typewriter jammed. Hope this helps. :)
Answer:
The method definition to this question can be given as:
Method definition:
double max(double x, double y) //define method with double parameter
{
if (x>=y) //check condition.
return x; //return value
else
return y; //return value
}
double max(int x, int y) //define method with integer parameter
{
if (x>=y) //check condition
return x; //return value
else
return y; //return value
}
double max(char x, char y) //define method with char parameter
{
if (x>=y) //check condition
return x; //return value
else
return y; //return value
}
Explanation:
The above method definition can be described as below:
- In the first method definition first, we define a method that is "max()". In this method we pass two variables as a parameter that is "x and y" and the datatype of this is double. Then we use a conditional statement. In the if block we check if variable x is greater then equal to y then it will return x else it will return y.
- In the second method definition, we define a method that is same as the first method name but in this method, we pass two integer variable that is "x and y". Then we use a conditional statement. In the if block we check if variable x is greater then equal to y then it will return x else it will return y.
- In the third method definition, we define a method that is same as the first and second method name but in this method, we pass two char variable that is "x and y". Then we use a conditional statement. In the if block we check if variable x is greater then equal to y then it will return x else it will return y.
What is responsible or who is responsible?
If you have only 1 method that is not overloaded, then you will not be able to call it with inappropriate parameter types, that is, if the initial type of the parameter is int, then it will not be able to get the double, float, and other values, because of this an error will occur.
For this, method overloading is created.
Method overloading is when you create methods with the same name, but only the content and parameters of the methods are/can-be completely different.
