In C#, data types are divided into value types and reference types.

Value types store data directly. When assigned or passed to a method, the value itself is copied. Examples: int, double, struct, bool.

Reference types store a reference to a memory area where the data is located. When assigned, the reference is copied, not the data, so multiple variables can point to the same object. Examples: class, string, array.

Example:

int a = 5;
int b = a; // copies the value 5
b = 10;
// a still equals 5

class Person { public string Name; }
Person p1 = new Person { Name = "Alice" };
Person p2 = p1; // copies the reference
p2.Name = "Bob";
// p1.Name is now "Bob"

The main difference is in how data is stored and copied: value types copy the values, reference types copy references to objects.
