Answer and Explanation:

There are three types of irony in the literature and each has completely different effects on the text. These types of irony are called verbal irony, dramatic irony and situational irony.

Dramatic irony allows the text to reveal story information to readers, not characters. An example of this occurs when the reader knows who the masked hero of the story is, while the characters do not know.

Verbal irony is presented in a text when a character says something, but it means the opposite of what he said. An example of this can be seen when a car passes through a puddle of water throwing water at a character who gets completely wet and says angrily "That's great! It was exactly what I wanted."

Last, but not least, situational irony occurs when the text presents evidence for a predictable ending (of a situation), but has a completely different ending. An example of this can be seen when at a wedding, the bride at the time of answering "yes" answers "no."
