Type Inference

In C# you can write

var x = "hello";

Since "hello" is a string, x becomes a string at compile time. This is called type inference. (As in, the type of variable x got inferred.)

If you try something like
var x = "hello";
int b = a;

The compiler will throw an error: Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'string'.
