Method overload resolution unexpected behavior

Question

I\'m wrestling with a weird, at least for me, method overloading resolution of .net. I\'ve written a small sample to reproduce the issue:

class Program
{

I agree with Jon Skeet's answer - refer to his post (above) on Jan 11 at 17:32. To expand further, please refer to C# language specification - page: 110

6.1.3 Implicit enumeration conversions An implicit enumeration conversion permits the decimal-integer-literal 0 to be converted to any enum-type and to any nullable-type whose underlying type is an enum-type. In the latter case the conversion is evaluated by converting to the underlying enum-type and wrapping the result (§4.1.10).

Still there is a problem:

adding the statement:

test.Execute(-0.0); //object overload: 0

while adding the following:

test.Execute(+0.0); //enum overload: 0
