  • Q2. Can we overload the main method or constructor?
  • Ans. 

    Yes, we can overload the main method and constructor in Java.

  • Q3. Can we override the static method?
  • Ans. 

    No, we cannot override static methods.

    • Static methods belong to the class and not to the instance of the class.

    • Overriding is a concept of polymorphism which is not applicable to static methods.

    • However, we can have a static method with the same name in the subclass which is called method hiding.
