methods are said to agree with each other on parameter specializers
and qualifiers if the following conditions hold:
<P>
<UL><LI> Both methods have the same number of required parameters.
Suppose the parameter specializers of the two methods are
<IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="_24769_tex2html_wrap43545.gif">
and <IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="_24769_tex2html_wrap43547.gif">.
