Vineet Kumar Saini · Answer

Hi Arun... Delegates are similar to C++ function pointers, but are type safe. Delegates allow methods to be passed as parameters. Delegates can be used to define callback methods. Delegates can be chained together; for example, multiple methods can be called on a single event. Methods don't need to match the delegate signature exactly. For more information C# version 2.0 introduces the concept of Anonymous Method which permit code blocks to be passed as parameters in place of a separately defined method.

Hi Arun, Normal 0 A delegate defines a reference type that can be used to encapsulate a method with a specific signature. A delegate instance encapsulates a static or an instance method. Delegates are roughly similar to function pointers in C++; however, delegates are type-safe and secure. Please refer Our recommended articles also Thanks
