Did you notice he's Microsoft certified ?

OK then. Here's a choice for you:

public int Triple(int value)
{
//...put your implementation here.
}
public long Triple(long value)
{
//...put your implementation here.
}

.. and so on. Obviously you'll want to implement exception handling and validation to take care of those cases where the return values are outside min/max values. To call them you would do:

int value = Triple(10);

When you say "triple", do you mean: 1) Multiply it by 3 2) Multiply it by itself 3 times 3) Display it three times like "101010" 4) Chop off your neighbor's head and put it on a pike in your front yard 5) Post a programming question in the Lounge 6) Herd elephants to their doom 7) Offer a starving muslim a pork sandwich

Hi, You can use the following classes

public class Single
{
  private int _iValue;

  public int Value
  {
    get { return _iValue; }
  }

  public Single() : this(0) {}
  public Single(int iValue) 
  {
    _iValue = iValue;
  }
};

public class Double
{
  private int _iValue;

  public int Value
  {
    get 
    {
      Single sinA = new Single(_iValue);
      Single sinB = new Single(_iValue);
      
      return sinA.Value + sinB.Value; 
    }
  }

  public Double() : this(0) {}
  public Double(int iValue) 
  {
    _iValue = iValue;
  }
};

public class Tripple
{
  private int _iValue;

  public int Value
  {
    get
    {
      Double douA = new Double(_iValue);
      Single sinB = new Single(_iValue);

      return douA.Value + sinB.Value;
    }
  }

  public Tripple() : this(0) { }
  public Tripple(int iValue)
  {
    _iValue = iValue;
  }
};

You can use it like this;

Tripple tripNumber = new Tripple(5);
int iData = tripNumber.Value;

Great answer, but you have too much time on your hands! :laugh:

This is not correct. If I would have too much time on my hands I would have come with something Generic like this:

// Making it generic
MultiType<Double, Double> mul4 = new MultiType<Double, Double>(5);
int iData = mul4.Value;

MultiType<Double, MultiType<Double, Single>> mul5 = new MultiType<Double, MultiType<Double, Single>>(5);
iData = mul5.Value;

And the classes:

public class Single 
{
  protected int _iValue;

  public int Value
  {
    get { return Data(); }
  }

  public void setValue(int IValue)
  {
    _iValue = IValue;
  }

  protected virtual int Data()
  {
    return _iValue;
  }

  public Single() : this(0) {}
  public Single(int iValue) 
  {
    _iValue = iValue;
  }
};

public class Null : Single
{
  public Null() : this(0) { }
  public Null(int iValue)
  {
    _iValue = 0;
  }

  protected override int Data()
  {
    return 0;
  }
};

public class Double : Single
{
  protected override int Data()
  {
    Single sinA = new Single(_iValue);
    Single sinB = new Single(_iValue);
    
    return sinA.Value + sinB.Value;
  }

  public Double() : this(0) {}
  public Double(int iValue) 
  {
    _iValue = iValue;
  }
};

public class MultiType<TL, TR> : Single
  where TL : Single, new()
  where TR : Single, new()  
{
  public MultiType() : this(0) { }
  public MultiType(int iValue)
  { 
    _iValue = iValue;
  }

   protected override int Data()
   {
     Single baseLeft = new TL();
     baseLeft.setValue(_iValue);

     Single baseRight = new TR();
     baseRight.setValue(_iValue);

     return baseLeft.Value + baseRight.Value;
   }
};

I myself made an assembly (TripleMachine.dll) that I just import whenever I need to triple a number. It has support for multithreading, for when I need to tripple large chunks of data.

boolean dontNotCancel = ((!false && true) != (!true || false)) ? ((false == false || (true && (false == true ? true : false))) ? true : false) : (true != false && false);

hey, looks like my signature o.o

betonglasermur.FeedDwarf(pur_is, 17);
ProcessStartupInfo.AintNotCreateNoWindow = (false && !true) != (true || false) ? false == true ? true : false : (true != false && false);

hey, that does not look like it isn't my signature

boolean dontNotCancel = ((!false && true) != (!true || false)) ? ((false == false || (true && (false == true ? true : false))) ? true : false) : (true != false && false);

laserbaronen

hey, that aint not no signature :confused::confused::confused:

betonglasermur.FeedDwarf(pur_is, 17);
ProcessStartupInfo.AintNotCreateNoWindow = (false && !true) != (true || false) ? false == true ? true : false : (true != false && false);
