c# - Why is there no built-in type for DateTime? -
this question has answer here:
most common datatypes have built in type: int32 has int, boolean has bool, string has string, etc. why there no built-in type datetime?
first thought it's because datetime has properties , public functions, int. can shed light on this? what's criteria type have built-in equivalent?
the clr defines basic building blocks: minimal data types necessary define others. types given alias.
since datetime collection of longs , integers, packed in struct, there no need create new data type in clr it. can build data types defined in clr. no need aliasing it.
