can someone explain to me why I can mix string with int here

you have 2 indexers:

 

public string this[int pos]    //this takes int 

public string this[string data] //this takes string 

  

So, it is ok to write

 

myInd[5] = "Any Value";

myInd["empty"] = "no value";

Not sure why I posted the code again it still turns out not ok....

 

 

anyway, I will copy from notepad and paste here again

 

 class OvrIndexer
{
    private string[] myData;
    private int         arrSize;

    public OvrIndexer(int size)
    {
        arrSize = size;
        myData = new string[size];

        for (int i=0; i < size; i++)
        {
            myData[i] = "empty";
        }
    }
