Unlike C++ java doesn't provide freedom to programmer to overload the standard arithmetic operators e.g. +, -, * and /, Java has left lot of feature supported in C++ e.g. Java doesn't support multiple inheritance, no pointers in Java and no pass by reference in java. Rarely this question asked in interview to check how programmer thinks about certain features which java doesn't have. Though I don't know the real reason behind it I think following observation make sense on why Operator overloading is not supported in Java |
