Explanation of Solution

Data types in C#:

In C# and .NET framework, all the data types fall into two types. They are,

• • Value types
• • Reference types

In C#, the data types are int, double, decimal, and bool are used. In addition to these, C# mainly focuses the value types and reference type.

Value type:

Value type is a one type of data type which holds the actual value of variables.

• • The variables are stored in memory allocated for variables in stack.
• • The memory allocated for value type is the actual location which holds the value assigned for the variable.

For example:

int a=20;

• • Here, the value “20” is stored in memory space which is allocated for the integer variable “a”.

Reference type:

Reference type works different from value type. It is not directly stores its value instead it stores the memory address where the value is being stored. There are two things for reference type. They are,

• • An object that is generated in memory location...
