Is this an example of python function overload?

Question

I know python does not allow us to overload functions. However, does it have inbuilt overloaded methods?

Consider this:

setattr(object_name,\'variable\',         


        

Answer 1

overloading methods is tricky in python. However, there could be usage of passing the dict, list or primitive variables.

I have tried something for my use cases, this could help here to understand people to overload the methods.

Let's take the example:

a class overload method with call the methods from different class.

def add_bullet(sprite=None, start=None, headto=None, spead=None, acceleration=None):

pass the arguments from remote class:

add_bullet(sprite = 'test', start=Yes,headto={'lat':10.6666,'long':10.6666},accelaration=10.6}

OR add_bullet(sprite = 'test', start=Yes,headto={'lat':10.6666,'long':10.6666},speed=['10','20,'30']}

So, handling is being achieved for list, Dictionary or primitive variables from method overloading.
