The Weird and The Wonderful

   

The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrassing mistakes, horrid workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write - the truly sublime.

Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All actual programming questions will be removed.

In C#, classes can have properties and methods: they are called static properties and methods.

They can be manipulated at run time, exactly in the same way as instances: you can change property values and call class methods.
There is no dynamic typing in C# (except for the dynamic type, but let's ignore this for the sake of this discussion).

So, a class in C# can be an Object (I was going to write "is a", but "can be" is more correct), as for the "object" definition.
