In c# if I use decimal
(lower case 'd'), the IDE shows it in dark blue (like int
). If I use Decimal
(upper case 'd'), the IDE shows it in teal (like a class name). In both cases the tooltip is struct System.Decimal
.
Is there any difference? Is one "preferred"?
In mathematics, the tilde often represents approximation, especially when used in duplicate, and is sometimes called the "equivalency sign." In regular expressions, the tilde is used as an operator in pattern matching, and in C programming, it is used as a bitwise operator representing a unary negation (i.e., "bitwise ...
The logical OR operator ( || ) returns the boolean value true if either or both operands is true and returns false otherwise.
C operators are one of the features in C which has symbols that can be used to perform mathematical, relational, bitwise, conditional, or logical manipulations. The C programming language has a lot of built-in operators to perform various tasks as per the need of the program.
This operator first subtracts the value on the right from the current value of the variable on left and then assigns the result to the variable on the left. Example: (a -= b) can be written as (a = a - b) If initially value stored in a is 8. Then (a -= 6) = 2.
Nope; identical. decimal
is defined as an alias to System.Decimal
, and is generally preferred, except in public method names, where you should use the proper name (ReadDecimal
, etc) - because your callers might not be C#. This is more noticeable in int
vs ReadInt32
, etc.
There certainly isn't the Java-style boxing difference.
(of course, if you do something like declare a more-namespace-local Decimal
that does something completely different, then there are differences, but that would be silly).
