Overriding - same method names with same arguments and same return types associated in a class and its subclass.

Overloading - same method name with different arguments, may or may not be same return type written in the same class itself.

overloading comes with in class for example :

Operator Overloading and Method overloading.

void Add( int i );
void Add( char c );

These two function declaration and definition in the same class is called method OVERLOADING.


overriding comes with two class ( base and drived class )

function in the base class is like

public virtual void Display();

function in the drived class is like

public override void Display();

this function overrides the base class .

I think both of you are mistaking:
overriding: same method names with same arguments but return types may be different, associated in a class and its subclass.

Just to let you know that return types doesn't matter in function overloading i.e. function with the same name. Function overloading could be achieved using different parameters else compiler would throw an error saying same signatures.
