Aim:- Demonstrate how to gather information on various types included in any

assembly by using the System.Reflection namespace and some main.NET base classes.
Source code:-
Customer. Class
using System;
namespace Customer
{
public class Client
{
public Client()
{
}
public string GetClient(String ClientID)
{
return "ID is blank";
}
}
}

worker.class

using System;
namespace Employee
{
public class Worker
{
public Worker()
{
}
public string GetWorker(String WorkerID)
{
return "ID is blank";
}
}
}

individual.class

using System;
namespace Person
{
public class Individual
{
public Individual()
{
}
public string GetIndividual(String IndividualID)
{
return "ID is blank";
}
}
}
