Discussing the article: "From Basic to Intermediate: Overload"

 

Check out the new article: From Basic to Intermediate: Overload.

Perhaps this article will be the most confusing for novice programmers. As a matter of fact, here I will show that it is not always that all functions and procedures have unique names in the same code. Yes, we can easily use functions and procedures with the same name — and this is called overload.

The content presented here has a purely didactic purpose. It should not be considered in any way as a final application. Its purpose is not to explore the concepts presented here.

In the previous article named “From Basic to Intermediate: Floating point“ we discussed fundamentals of working with floating-point numbers. I first presented this material as a starting point, because it is extremely important. In my opinion, understanding how float and double types work is absolutely necessary in order to further cope up with more complex issues.

Although the content of the article covers only a basic part of what everyone really needs to master if they want to become a good programmer, this is already quite enough to move on to other topics. However, it is quite possible that at some point we will have to return to floating-point numbers, but at a more advanced level. However, everything has its own time.
