Method Overloading Method Overriding
Method Overloading is about the same function have different signatures. Method Overriding is about the same function, same signature but different classes connected through inheritance.
Method Overloading is a concept of compile-time polymorphism Method Overriding is a concept of run time polymorphism.
Method Overloading Example:

public class Employee
{
	public void print()
	{
	//some code here
	}
	public void print(String name)
	{
	//some code here
	}
	public void print(Employee employee)
	{
	//some code here
	}

}
Method Overriding Example:

public class Person
{
public void print(String name)
	{
	//some code here
	}
}
public class Employee extends Person
{
	@Override
	public void print(String name)
	{
	//some code here
	}

}
