Passing null arguments to C# methods

Question

Is there a way to pass null arguments to C# methods (something like null arguments in c++)?

For example:

Is it possible to translate the following c++ functi

You can use 2 ways: int? or Nullable, both have the same behavior. You could to make a mix without problems but is better choice one to make code cleanest.

Option 1 (With ?):

private void Example(int? arg1, int? arg2)
    {
        if (arg1.HasValue)
        {
            //do something
        }
        if (arg1.HasValue)
        {
            //do something else
        }
    }

Option 2 (With Nullable):

private void Example(Nullable arg1, Nullable arg2)
    {
        if (arg1.HasValue)
        {
            //do something
        }
        if (arg1.HasValue)
        {
            //do something else
        }
    }

From C#4.0 comes a new way to do the same with more flexibility, in this case the framework offers optional parameters with default values, of this way you can set a default value if the method is called without all parameters.

Option 3 (With default values)

private void Example(int arg1 = 0, int arg2 = 1)
    {
        //do something else
    }
