Parameter passing playground

Getting used to how parameter passing works isn't really simple. Especially if you didn't program so often, every now and then you have to check back how things works. If you really want to understand how things work I recommend you CLR via C# by Jeffrey Richter.

First thing to remember is the difference between value and reference types. The first lives in the stack(int, short, struct), the second on the heap (string, your class types).

   1: class Program
   2: {
   3:     static void Main(string[] args)
   4:     {
   5:         string callerString1 = "CallerValue1";
   6:         string callerString2 = "CallerValue2";
   7:         string callerString3 = callerString1;
   8:         string callerString4 = callerString2;
   9:  
  10:         string stringBefore = "callerString1=" + callerString1 + " callerString2=" + callerString2 + " callerString3=" + callerString3 + " callerString4=" + callerString4;
  11:  
  12:         int int1 = 8;
  13:         int int2 = 9;
  14:         int int3 = int1;
  15:         int int4 = int2;
  16:         string intBefore = "int1=" + int1 + " int2=" + int2 + " int3=" + int3 + " int4=" + int4;
