Question

Are they the same in inheritance and console program?

Answer 1

Operator overloading and overriding are not supported in Java.

Check following desc quoted from : http://java.sun.com/docs/white/langenv/Simple.doc2.html

2.2.7 No More Operator Overloading

There are no means provided by which programmers can overload the standard arithmetic operators. Once again, the effects of operator overloading can be just as easily achieved by declaring a class, appropriate instance variables, and appropriate methods to manipulate those variables. Eliminating operator overloading leads to great simplification of code.
