Datatype String vs string in C#

Question

When to use "String" and when to go for "string" data type in C# ?

What is the difference between them?

Thanks.

Duplicate, and "nothing at all, except you don't need to qualify `string` with `System.`". — Marc Gravell, Mar 31 '09 at 07:14

There is no difference. string is an alias of String. The same goes for int and Int32 etc.

They are the same. Choose one notation and stick to it.
