Question

what is an  extension methods in c#

Manoj Bhatt · Answer

Extension methods enable you to "add" methods to existing types without creating a new derived type, recompiling, or otherwise modifying the original type. Extension methods are a special kind of static method, but they are called as if they were instance methods on the extended type. For client code written in C# and Visual Basic, there is no apparent difference between calling an extension method and the methods that are actually defined in a type.

public static void Method1(this anotherclass ob) 
{          
   Console.WriteLine("Hello I m extended method");
}

you can access this Extension Method 'Method1' with using object of another class.
