Method overloading based on the different number of arguments in VB.Net

Here, we will create a Sample class with two overloaded methods Add() to calculate the addition of a given number of arguments.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to demonstrate the method overloading based on the number of arguments is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

'based on the number of arguments.

Module Module1
    Class Sample
        Public Sub Add(ByVal num1 As Integer, ByVal num2 As Integer)
            Dim sum As Integer = 0

            sum = num1 + num2
            Console.WriteLine("Sum is: {0}", sum)
        End Sub

        Public Sub Add(ByVal num1 As Integer, ByVal num2 As Integer, ByVal num3 As Integer)
            Dim sum As Integer = 0

            sum = num1 + num2 + num3
            Console.WriteLine("Sum is: {0}", sum)
        End Sub
    End Class
    
    Sub Main()
        Dim obj As New Sample()

        obj.Add(10, 20)
        obj.Add(10, 20, 30)
    End Sub
End Module

Output:

Sum is: 30
Sum is: 60
Press any key to continue . . .

Explanation:

In the above program, we created a module Module1. Here, we created a class Sample that contains two Add() methods to calculate the sum of arguments.

Here, we created the Add() method with two and three arguments, in both methods we add the value of arguments and then print the addition on the console screen.

The Main() method is the entry point for the program, here we created an object of Sample class and then called both methods that will print the addition of arguments on the console screen.
