If value types are assigned to variables of type object they are boxed - the value is stored in an instance of a System.Object. This can lead to unintended consequences when comparing values with ==, e.g.: object left = (int)1; // int in an object box object right = (int)1; // int in an object bo...

Boxed value types can only be unboxed into their original Type, even if a conversion of the two Types is valid, e.g.: object boxedInt = (int)1; // int boxed in an object long unboxedInt1 = (long)boxedInt; // invalid cast This can be avoided by first unboxing into the original Type, e.g.: lon...
