Here’s how you declare and use interfaces in C#.

Example

// An Anonymous Method

  // method body
};

For example, to create an anonymous method that wrapped a fruit name and assign it to a delegate:

Example

using System;

// Define a delegate
delegate void fruitName(string name);

public class Program
{
  public static void Main(string[] arge)
  {
    // Create an anonymous method and assign it to a delegate
    fruitName fruit = delegate(string name)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("My favorite fruit is: {0}", name);
    };
    fruit("Cherry");

}

Output
