Answer 1

It sounds like you want something similar to a C/C++ typedef, which unfortunately I don't think is supported in C#. You can make local alias within a single source file (see below), but the alias won't be visible anywhere else.

To create a local alias, add this at the top of your source file:

using Data = System.Double;
