delegates are just function pointers that hod reference to functions for this they have same number of parameters and same return type. The are used primarily to expose functionality since there is only one entry point in the function.

Solution 6

It can be used to encapsulate a reference to a method inside a delegate object.

The delegate object can then be passed to code which can call the referenced method, without having to know at compile time which method will be invoked.
