EXample
object: System.Object string: System.String bool: System.Boolean float: System.Single double: System.Double decimal: System.Decimal byte: System.Byte sbyte: System.SByte short: System.Int16 ushort: System.UInt16 int: System.Int32 uint: System.UInt32 long: System.Int64 ulong: System.UInt64 char: System.Char
The String type in C# allows you to assign any string values to a variable. The string type is an alias for the System.String class. It is derived from object type. The value for a string type can be assigned using string literals in two forms − quoted and @quoted.
