concepts of overloding operators with an example

[weaknessforcats]

Use the Internet to research this.

The idea is to make yout code easy to use. If you have x + 10 and x is an int then 10 is added to the int value. If x is a date, then 10 days would be added to the date value.

Unfortunately, the + does not work with dates. So, the overload is your implementation of the + operator for use with date variables.

Truly, the Internet has a ton of info on this.

Hi,

Assume that you wants to add two strings (concatenate) say S1 and S2 like below

S = S1 + S2

But its not possible since + doesn't add strings, So you need to overload + operator to add (concatenate) the strings.

This is just an example to understand when you need to overload operators.
