Yes, TypeScript support function overloading. But the implementation is odd. When we perform function overloading in TypeScript, then we can implement only one functions with multiple signatures.
//Function with string type parameter
function add(a:string, b:string): string;
//Function with number type parameter
function add(a:number, b:number): number;
//Function Definition
function add(a: any, b:any): any {
return a + b;
}
In the above example, the first two lines are the function overload declaration. It has two overloads. The first signature has a parameter of type string whereas the second signature has a parameter of type number. The third function contains the actual implementation and has a parameter of type any. Any data type can take any type of data. The implementation then checks for the type of the supplied parameter and execute a different piece of code based on supplier parameter type.
