- How is an argument passed to a method? Can the argument have the same name as its parameter?arrow_forwardQuèstion 12 A method CAN NOT change the value of a variable of a primitive type that is an argument to the method call True Falsearrow_forwardThis C# program assignment requires that you write and call two programmer defined methods as described below: Method #1 (MyAddress) – this programmer defined method should output your name and address in a mailing label format. This method does not require any parameters, and will not return any value. Method #2 (AddressOut) – this programmer defined method should have three string parameters (name, address, and city‐state‐zip) and should output the passed parameters in mailing label format. This method will not return any value. Your Main() method for this program should consist of two lines of code – calls to each of the methods. Here is an example of the code in my Main() method MyAddress(); AddressOut(“Tim Jones”, “123 Main St.”, “East Brunswick, NJ 08816”);arrow_forward

As part of your solution, you will use the following parameters that are passed in to the method:A double variable with the identifier money that indicates how much money the gambler has.A double variable with the identifier wager that indicates how much money is being wagered in a particular bet.A Boolean variable with the identifier outcome that indicates if the gambler wins (true) or loses (false)1) In some cases the gambler is unable to fix the outcome of the wager ahead of time and must rely on luck.Use an if statement to check if outcome has a value (whether or not it is null)If it does not have a value, you will need to assign it one by instantiating a Random object and using one of its methods.2) Use an if/else statement to determine if the gambler has won the wager (outcome is true) If the gambler has won the wager, add the wager to amount of money the…arrow_forwardIf you want to generate a data type from a combination of objects, what are the two methods that C gives for doing so?arrow_forward
