  • Rust method calls (not from traits) are already a form of overloading, albeit only in a single argument (self). This does have the effect of complicating rust's type inference and making it fail in more cases, see for example the discussion in this issue.

  • koka

    Koka language compiler and interpreter

  • Koka has overloads as well as algebraic data types, for example show is defined with several overloads:

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
