What is the Importance of the "this" keyword?

I think "this" keyword is unnecessary. Can we stop redundant use of "this" keyword??

 Think about This as a reference variable that refers to the current object.

When a method is called, it is automatically passed a reference to the invoking object (that is, the object on which the method is called). This reference is called this.

As always, you could pass the object as a parameter and refer to it by referencing that, but "this" makes the code a bit more consistent and easier to read. It very simply indicates that whatever variable or method you're referring to should apply to THIS one... The one that is being referred to in this method's call.

From stackoverflow.com To qualify members hidden by similar name To have an object pass itself as a parameter to other methods To have an object return itself from a method To declare indexers To declare extension methods To pass parameters between constructors To internally reassign value type (struct) value. To invoke an extension method on the current instance To cast itself to another type To chain constructors defined in the same class
