Do Value Types in C# always go on the stack?
It is quite well-known that value-types are created on the Stack (sometimes in registers as well depending on the allocation strategy) and reference types are based in the Heap area of memory. But when you are creating a custom type and you wish to embed value types in there, where would they reside? So it […]

Let’s tear into assembly language of […]
