Question

Is int (aka Int32) an object , or a primitive in .NET (I\'m not asking regarding int?)?

Everything in C# inherits from object, including int.

From msdn:

Int32 is an immutable value type that represents signed integers

and

Both reference and value types are derived from the ultimate base class Object.
