JAVA中 什么是方法签名？what is method signature in java

如题：what is method signature in java？ 

answer：Definition: Two of the components of a method declaration comprise the method signature—the method's name and the parameter types.

方法声明的两个组件构成了方法签名 - 方法的名称和参数类型。

举例：

Here is an example of a typical method declaration:(这里是一个典型的方法声明)

public double calculateAnswer(double wingSpan, int numberOfEngines,
                              double length, double grossTons) {
    //do the calculation here
}

The signature of the method declared above is:（上面方法的签名是）

calculateAnswer(double, int, double, double)

 

不要再被方法签名迷惑了，之前读Effective Java的时候对这个概念有些疑惑。正好在看oracle的java 练习文档中有明确的定义。
