What are the common mistakes in method overriding and overloading?

What are the common mistakes in method overriding and overloading?

Common mistakes include not using the correct method signature in overloading and failing to use the @Override annotation in overriding.

Can you explain why the @Override annotation is important?

The @Override annotation helps to catch errors at compile time by ensuring that the method is actually overriding a method from a superclass.

What happens if I don't use the @Override annotation?

If you don't use it, you might accidentally create a new method instead of overriding, leading to unexpected behavior.

Are there any performance implications of overloading methods?

Generally, overloading methods doesn't have significant performance implications, but it can affect readability and maintainability.
