Data Types (C# Programming Guide) 

  • Artículo

C# is a strongly typed language; therefore every variable and object must have a declared type.

Data Types Overview

A data type can be described as being either:

  • A built-in data type, such as an int or char, or

  • A user-defined data type, such as a class or interface.

  • Data types can also be defined as being either:

  • Value Types (C# Reference), which store values, or

  • Reference Types (C# Reference), which store references to the actual data.
