método parcial
1. In C# programming, a method declaration that can be split across multiple partial class definitions, with the signature in one part and the implementation in another
The partial method allows developers to define a method signature in one part of a partial class and implement it in another.
O método parcial permite que os desenvolvedores definam uma assinatura de método em uma parte de uma classe parcial e a implementem em outra.
2. A method that can have multiple implementations across different parts of a partial type definition
In this design pattern, the partial method signature is declared without an implementation body initially.
