What is the difference between string and String?
If I want
string name = "Joe";
String name = "Joe";
which is the correct usage? Is there a difference?
Thanks in advance.

C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
Whereas this line of code would compile whether or not "using System" is in your code or not.

Think of string as a "shortcut" to the System.String class whereas String is basically directly making a variable of type System.String when "using System" is in the program.
(string == System.String)

Thanks for replying.
So basically, I can use either or as long as I pay attention to whether using System. Using System is automatically added into new projects. I wonder, when would you not using System?
There's no advantage then of using String over string or is there?
