Hi Chintoo!Read below line carefully, that remove your doubt between "string" and "String" "string" is a language keyword while "System.String" is the type it aliases.Both compile to exactly the same thing, similarly:int is System.Int32long is System.Int64float is System.Singledouble is System.Doublechar is System.Charbyte is System.Byteshort is System.Int16ushort is System.UInt16uint is System.UInt32ulong is System.UInt64I think in most cases this is about code legibility - all the basic system value types have aliases, I think the lower case string might just be for consistency.
