simple types and string type

[Tony Johansson]

Hi!

For example you have value types and reference types.
If we say that an int is a simple type what would we say about the string
type except that it is a reference type ?

It's an immutable reference type.

It's an immutable reference type.

I know that but it was not that I meant.

I mean can I say that a string is a derived type.

Like all types, it's derived from System.Object. But that's all it's
derived from.

string and int both are "derived" from object, or is that not what you meant
either?

Doesn't this come out roughly the equivalent of the following:

There are two types of people, "Type A", and "Type B". If I say "Fred" is
"Type C", then what can we say about "Judy"?

Airplane is to sky as Automobile is to:

a) orange
b) 47
c) No, a tree falling the forest does not make a sound if no one is
there to hear it.

But of course the answer is always B.
