Function Overloading
===================
{{#include ../links.md}}
Functions defined in script can be _overloaded_ by _arity_ (i.e. they are resolved purely upon the function's _name_
and _number_ of parameters, but not parameter _types_ since all parameters are the same type - [`Dynamic`]).
New definitions _overwrite_ previous definitions of the same name and number of parameters.
```rust
fn foo(x,y,z) { print("Three!!! " + x + "," + y + "," + z) }
fn foo(x) { print("One! " + x) }
fn foo(x,y) { print("Two! " + x + "," + y) }
fn foo() { print("None.") }
fn foo(x) { print("HA! NEW ONE! " + x) } // overwrites previous definition
foo(1,2,3); // prints "Three!!! 1,2,3"
foo(42); // prints "HA! NEW ONE! 42"
foo(1,2); // prints "Two!! 1,2"
foo(); // prints "None."
```
