Difference between ref and out parameters in C#

In C#, both `ref` and `out` parameters are used to pass arguments by reference to a method. However, there are key differences between them:

ref Parameters:

• Must be initialized before passing to the method.
• Method can read and modify the value of `ref` parameter.
• Changes made to the `ref` parameter inside the method are reflected outside the method.

out Parameters:

• Do not need to be initialized before passing to the method.
• Method must initialize the `out` parameter before returning.
• Designed to return a value from a method.

It is important to choose between `ref` and `out` parameters based on the specific requirements of your method and how you intend to use the passed arguments.
