    Explain in your own words why you cannot pass additional arguments in a function after using the params keyword.

    Think about what the params arguments are doing - then think about why you might not be able to add other keywords. If it helps, you should go and read the documentation to get some hints.

      After the params keyword is issued a Zombie Apocalypse is set in motion and only a keen C# developer can issue a certain combination of keywords that will thwart the impending doom.

        Explain, with your own words or not, why this place calls itself 'The Lounge' and why the people react as they do.

          When in doubt, use C++. :-)

                  - because the compiler forbade it? - because Method<T>(params T[] values1, params T[] values2, params T[] values3) is a problem and hassel to understand without benefit?

                    Actually, the "friendly manual" isn't answering his question. It only confirms the statement in the assignment that you cannot add any parameters after the params keyword, but not why! :doh: Unless of course "B'cause Microsoft says so!" is an acceptable answer to the question... :rolleyes:

                        Because params is an array of undetermined length. If you write: void Foo(params int[] ints) and try to call it with: Foo(1, 2, 3, 4) How would it know that you want 4 as a separate argument, if the method were defined like this: void Foo(params int[] oneThroughThree, int fourth) OK, maybe it could use type information, but that leads to bottomless pits where the Wumpus will eat you.

                                  I realised I was "helping" you with an assignment which actually was the opposite of helping - because it made thinking on your part unneccessary. Help should be given in a way that pushes the learner into the right direction, lifting confusion, but not presenting the answer right away. Confucius is attributed to have said: Tell me and I forget Show me and I remember Let me do it and I understand. If you have trouble with an assignment, don't ask for the answer. Try to make it clear to yourself why you can't answer it and ask people to help you better understand the assignment so that you can answer it yourself.
