Abstract
A delegate is a type used to reference a method. This allows methods to be assigned to variables and passed as arguments. The delegate’s declaration specifies the method signature to which objects of the delegate type can refer. Delegates are by convention named with each word initially capitalized, followed by Delegate at the end of the name.
delegate void MyDelegate(string s);
