Difference between "var" and "object" in C#
c#, types
Solution
Beginning in Visual C# 3.0, variables that are declared at method scope can have an implicit type `var`. An implicitly typed local variable is strongly typed just as if you had declared the type yourself, but the compiler determines the type. The following two declarations of `i` are functionally equivalent:
var i = 10; //implicitly typed
int i = 10; //explicitly typed
var isn't object
You should definitely read this : C# 3.0 - Var Isn't Object
Problem
Is the `var` type an equivalent to `Variant` in VB? When `object` can accept any datatype, what is the difference between those two?
