What is the difference between == and Equals() for primitives in C#?

Question

Consider this code:

int age = 25;
short newAge = 25;
Console.WriteLine(age == newAge);  //true
Console.WriteLine(newAge.Equals(age)); //false
Console.ReadLin         


        

Answer 1

Equals() is a method of System.Object Class
Syntax : Public virtual bool Equals()
Recommendation if we want to compare state of two objects then we should use Equals() method

as stated above answers == operators compare the values are same.

Please don't get confused with ReferenceEqual

Reference Equals()
Syntax : public static bool ReferenceEquals()
It determine whether the specified objects instance are of the same instance
