Which of the following best describes function overloading?

Changing the return type of a function
Allowing a function to have different sets of parameters
Converting a function from one namespace to another
Removing a function from the program's codebase

The correct answer is: Allowing a function to have different sets of parameters

Function overloading involves creating multiple functions with the same name, but different sets of parameters. This allows the program to handle different types of input without needing to create separate functions for each scenario. Options A, C, and D do not accurately describe function overloading. Changing the return type, converting namespaces, or removing a function altogether are not related to overloading a function with different parameters.
