Difference between the System.Array.CopyTo() and System.Array.Clone()

Question

What’s the difference between the System.Array.CopyTo() and System.Array.Clone()?

Answer 1

Array.Clone() would perform technically deep copy, when pass the array of int or string to a method as a reference.

For example

int[] numbers = new int[] { -11, 12, -42, 0, 1, 90, 68, 6, -9 }; 

SortByAscending(numbers); // Sort the array in ascending order by clone the numbers array to local new array.
SortByDescending(numbers); // Same as Ascending order Clone

Even if the methods sort the array of numbers but it wont affect the actual reference passed to the sorting methods.i.e the number array will be in same unsorted initial format in line no 1.

Note: The Clone should be done in the sorting methods.
