Answer 1

There are two ways that objects in your code could be compared: Equals and GetHashCode

For your object to be compared properly in ALL situations, when you override the Equals method (used for some comparisons), you must also override GetHashCode (used in the rest).

If you override one but not the other, depending on your code, you could get unexpected results.
