Re: overload constructor

Thanks Thi

Being still at the learning gate of this language I like to get clarity
about the various elements. Most of the books I have read or are reading
about C# seem to assume that the readers understand these concepts and
therefore they skim over a detailed explanation.

Do you know of any website links that cover these concepts? I struggled
with 'state' for a while because the material that I was reading assumed it
was obvious - maybe not to me.

Thanks again to you and Jon.
