Delegates properties

• 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.

C# version 2.0 introduces the concept of Anonymous methos, which permit code blocks to be passed as parameters in place of a separately defined method.
