 ## Overloaded Methods
 
-Overloaded methods are methods that have identical names in a given type but that have different arguments. In F#, optional arguments are usually used instead of overloaded methods. However, overloaded methods are permitted in the language, provided that the arguments are in tuple form, not curried form.
+Overloaded methods are methods that have identical names in a given type but that have different arguments. In F#, optional arguments are usually used instead of overloaded methods. However, overloaded methods are permitted in the language, provided that the arguments are in tuple form, not curried form. The following example demonstrates it:

+```fsharp
+type MyType(dataIn: int) =
+    let data = dataIn           
+    member this.DoSomething(a: int) = a + data
+    member this.DoSomething(a: string) = sprintf "Hello world, %s!" a
+
+let m = MyType(10)
+printfn "With int: %d" (m.DoSomething(2)) // With int: 12
+printfn "With string: %s" (m.DoSomething("Bill")) // With string: Hello world, Bill!

 ## Optional Arguments
 
-Starting with F# 4.1, you can also have optional arguments with a default parameter value in methods.  This is to help facilitate interoperation with C# code.  The following example demonstrates the syntax:
