Int16.GetTypeCode Method in C# with Examples

Int16.GetTypeCode method is used to get the TypeCode for value type Int16.

Syntax: public TypeCode GetTypeCode ();

Return Value: This method returns the enumerated constant Int16.

Below programs illustrate the use of the above discussed-method:

Example 1:

// C# program to illustrate the
// Int16.GetTypeCode() Method
using System;

class GFG {

    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {

        // Taking short value
        // i.e. Int16
        short s1 = 123;

        // Getting the typecode for Int16
        // using GetTypeCode() method
        TypeCode result = s1.GetTypeCode();

        // Display the TypeCode
        Console.WriteLine("TypeCode for Int16 is: {0}",
                                               result);
    }
}

Output:

TypeCode for Int16 is: Int16

Example 2:

// C# program to illustrate the
// Int16.GetTypeCode() Method
using System;

class GFG {

    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {
        // using result() Method
        result(Int16.MinValue);
        result(Int16.MaxValue);
    }

    // result() method
    public static void result(short val)
    {

        // using GetTypeCode() method
        TypeCode code = val.GetTypeCode();

        // Display the TypeCode
        Console.WriteLine("TypeCode for {0} is {1}",
                                         val, code);
    }
}

Output:

TypeCode for -32768 is Int16
TypeCode for 32767 is Int16
