Variant for basic value types in C#?

Question

If Object is used to handle an object as it was of any kind (Variant).

How do the same for basic types ( int, float, double, etc)

Answer 1

You Can use extension

Answer 2

So based on the question, you can have a generic parameter that will accept any value, the way that "object" can be used as a parameter that accepts any type of object. This can be in the following signature.
public void AcceptsAny<T>(T anyValue)
T is a generic type and this method will accept any value including an object.

Answer 3

A couple notes. You will have to figure out what has been passed in to do any work on it. The reason why "object" works is because it is a primitive type. You can think of it as all objects inherit from "object". But string and int ect are already primitive types. The correct way to accomplish what I think you are trying to do, would be to overload the method for each possible parameter.

Kail Galestorm
when asked that, was trying to do something like use an array hosting one value of every primitive type.l and iterate it within a loop to pass it calling a generic method to operate with.
I was not aware that even primitive value types inherit from object too, so it solves the case.
Also there's ValueType too.
Thx for answer anyways.

Kail Galestorm,
What did you mean by "string and int already are primitive types"?
