Question

hi i am little bit confused in valu type or referance type…
for instance int is a value type string is referance type but int also referances some value
like int int i=4
int j=i here j is also referanced 4 as like i so why not we call it as a referance type……in case of string s="hello"
string s1=s here s is referancing s…..will any one explain in storage point of view ……is there any restriction over valu type or referance type.

Answer 1

int i=4;
int j=i;

int is value type, it means that this expression j=i copies value from i to j.

string s="hello";
string s1=s;

string is reference type so here not value is copied but reference to that string, so they now point to same object.
