To associate the event with the method that will handle the event, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate.

- The following example shows an event named `ThresholdReached` that is associated with an delegate. The method assigned to the delegate is called in the `OnThresholdReached` method.
