Thread: function overloading, why is it done?

Code:

    
 public SqlCommand GetCommand(string commandText, CommandType commandType, params SqlParameter[] parameters) {            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
            cmd.Connection = GetConnection();
            cmd.CommandText = commandText;
            cmd.CommandType = commandType;
            foreach(SqlParameter p in parameters) {
                cmd.Parameters.Add(p);
            }
            return cmd;
        }


        public SqlCommand GetCommand(string commandText, params SqlParameter[] parameters) {
            return GetCommand(commandText, CommandType.StoredProcedure, parameters);
        }
