Q1. Any real life example of Overloading and Overridding ?

Ans. All members of a family share a common last name and thats how outsiders recognize them, but to recognize individual team members , we need an overloaded name and hence we use First Name along with Last Name to uniquely identify.

Some members of a family have a Nick Name as the real name is very long or hard to call. So the Nick name overrides the Original Name in certain circumstances.
