Could someone please explain why this is happening?
var y = new int[]{1,2};
Console.WriteLine(y is uint[]); // false
Console.WriteLine(((object)y) is uint[]); // true
In c# you can’t cast an
intto auint, so the first test fails because it is compiled to constant false.However, int->uint cast is allowed by the CLR. The second check cannot be deduced by the compiler and therefore must be calculated at runtime. As you’ve dodged compiler checks, the CLR allows it.
