What are the different ways for a method to be overloaded in C#?


The different ways with which a method can be overloaded is −

The datatypes of parameters are different
The number of parameters are different

The following gives an example stating different datatypes of parameters −

void print(int i) {
   Console.WriteLine("Printing int: {0}", i );
}

void print(double f) {
   Console.WriteLine("Printing float: {0}" , f);
}

void print(string s) {
   Console.WriteLine("Printing string: {0}", s);
}

The following states the different number of parameters −

// two parameters
public static int mulDisplay(int one, int two) {
   return one * two;
}

// three parameters
public static int mulDisplay(int one, int two, int three) {
   return one * two * three;
}

// four parameters
public static int mulDisplay(int one, int two, int three, int four) {
   return one * two * three * four;
}
