**CTS stands for Common Type System**. It allows two different languages running on the .Net framework will get compiled into common data types for smooth communication between objects of different languages. It is handled by [**CLR**](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/145568/what-is-cls-in-dot-net-framework). It ensures **cross handle integration, type safety and high performance of code execution.**
