I am confuse about type and class in some book about C#.
What is the difference between type and class?

They are basically the same i guessed.
Also, there is a class called Type in .NET. To get a type from a class
you would go Type t = typeof(ClassNam e);

"Type" is used when we are discussing types. In simple words, you see that
whenever we use variables, they "always" have a type no matter if they are
int, float, string, stringbuilder, FileStream. They are all types, but not
all of them are classes! int is not a class, it is a struct or "value type"
in .net terminology.

The way I see it, a type is anything that can be used to "type" a variable.
And that doesn't always need to be a class. Enumerations, for example, are
not classes but they are types because a variable can be typed as an
enumeration.
In general, the .NET Framework recognizes these types:
- Value types, for example int, bool, and any enumerations and structs you
create in your code.
- Reference types, i.e., classes, interfaces, arrays, and delegates.
Hope this makes sence.

ad... it depends on the definition of type. if you define type as a
public interface then a class can have many types. a reference variable
has type and an object has class.

What's better about Ruby than Python? I'm sure there's something. What is

This is not a troll. I'm language shopping and I want people's answers. I

also talking about Ruby. So it seems that Ruby has the potential to compete

I have been programming in C++ for over 4 years. I *think* I knew that
a struct could have a constructor but I decided to dig into it a little
more today, and found that there is very little difference between a
struct and a class in C++. Both have inheritance, access modifiers,
etc. The only diff I see is the default access level is public vs.
private.
I have always just used structs as a minimal class, as that is the way

Hello everyone,
I have a newbe question:
In Access (2003) VBA, what is the difference between a Module and a
Class Module in the VBA development environment?
If I remember correctly, new types of objects (classes) can only be
defined in Class modules.

Hello,
I understand the default-initialization happens if we don't initialize
an object explicitly. I think for an object of a class type, the
value is determined by the constructor, and for the built-in types,
the value is usually garbage. Is this right?
However, I'm a bit confused about value-initialization, when does it
happen, and what kind of values are assigned to objects?

Hello,
Can someone explain to me the difference between a type and a class?
After reading http://www.cafepy.com/article/python_types_and_objects/
it seems to me that classes and types are actually the same thing:
- both are instances of a metaclass, and the same metaclass ('type')
can instantiate both classes and types.
- both can be instantiated and yield an "ordinary" object
- I can even inherit from a type and get a class

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
