Is there an actual difference in the 2 different w

Question

In C# is there any real difference (other than syntax) under the hood between:

myButton.Click += new EventHandler(myMemberMethod);

and

myButton.Click += myMemberMethod;

?

Answer 1

The second method is a shortcut to the first one, it was introduced in C# 2.0

Answer 2

They are exactly the same, its called syntax sugar.

There are a lot of things that arent needed, to get a better idea of them while programming you should try something like Resharper. It will color the unnecessary code in Grey. Not to mention a whole myriad of incredible tools and refactorings.
