When we write non-trivial software that should go to production, it is mandatory to have the ability to load and execute modules on the fly. This is useful when you are planning to provide user defined extensions as a mechanism to add new features to the existing software. The .NET Reflection API is a nifty mechanism supported by the Microsoft Corporation to help developers to write code that can be loaded dynamically, after the base software has been written.
