Go back to the LearningObjects and have a try. Inside the Start function, type new Person (. The popup in MonoDevelop will appear as soon as you type the open bracket.
MonoDevelop is trying to let us know there are two overloads available for Person constructors. Press down the arrow on your keyboard straightaway to preview the next overload:
As you can see, this is the custom constructor we have written. By pressing down the arrow key whenever...
