method overloading

taks kamps

i want to Write a method called DisplayGreeting that writes "Hello, World!" to the console.

Then overload the DisplayGreeting method to allow the code to compile.

using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
class Program
{

static void Main(string[] args)
{
DisplayGreeting();
string name = "Simon";
DisplayGreeting(name);
}
}
}

Hi Taks,

Method overloading means ability to redefine a function in more than one form.

It can be done by different way like,

1. Number of parameters in two methods.

2. Change Data types of the parameters of methods.

3. Changing order of the parameters of methods.

In Your case its number of parameter.

DisplayGreeting(); // Here no parameter

DisplayGreeting(string Name); // Here one parameter
