C#datatypes

Data types in C# are divided into value types and reference types. Value types include primitive data types like integers, floats, chars, and bools which are stored on the stack. Reference types include strings and objects which are stored on the heap with their addresses stored on the stack. The dynamic type was introduced in C# 4.0 to allow variables to be declared without a specific type.

Data types in c sharp:

=================
Interger types
**************
c# types IL Types size/capacity
======= ======= ===========
byte System.Byte 0-255
short System.Int16 -32768 -- 32767
int System.Int32 - 2^31----2^31-1
long System.Int64 -2^63---2^63-1
sbyte System.SByte -128---127
ushort System.UInt16 -0--65535
uint System.UInt32 -0-- -2^32-1
ulong System.Uint64 -0 -- -2^64-1

Decimal or float types


====================
c# type iltype size/capacity
======= ======= ============
float System.Single 4bytes
double System.Double 8bytes
decimal System.Decimal 16-bytes
Boolean types
=================
bool System.boolean true/false

Character Types
================
Char System.Char 2-bytes
String System.String it is depends on the
value assigned to it

Data types are divided into two types


====================================
1. value types
2.Reference types

value types:
==========
all the fixed length data types comes under the categories of value types
ex:
int ,float,char,bool etc

==> value types are stored in a stack memory area

Reference types
================
all variable length types comes under the category of Reference type
example:
=====
1.string
2.Object

-->in case of reference type ,values are stored on heap and their address will be
stored on stack memory

-->in C# heap is managed easily because it is controlled by garbage collector(clr)


the heap is called as managed heap

Dynamic type:
==========
introduced in c#4.0 which allows to declare variables and fields as dynaimic type.
