Function Overloading
Functions defined in script can be overloaded by arity (i.e. they are resolved purely upon the
function’s name and number of parameters, but not parameter types since all parameters are the
same type – Dynamic
).
New definitions overwrite previous definitions of the same name and number of parameters.
fn foo(x, y, z) {
print(`Three!!! ${x}, ${y}, ${z}`);
}
fn foo(x) {
print(`One! ${x}`);
}
fn foo(x, y) {
print(`Two! ${x}, ${y}`);
}
fn foo() {
print("None.");
}
fn foo(x) { // <- overwrites previous definition
print(`HA! NEW ONE! ${x}`);
}
foo(1,2,3); // prints "Three!!! 1,2,3"
foo(42); // prints "HA! NEW ONE! 42"
foo(1,2); // prints "Two!! 1,2"
foo(); // prints "None."
