Here, we will check a specified type is primitive data-type or not using the IsPrimitive property of Type class.
Program:
The source code to check a specified type is a primitive data-type or not is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully on Microsoft Visual Studio.
//C# program to check a specified type is a primitive data type.
using System;
using System.Reflection;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Type type = typeof(int);
if (type.IsPrimitive== true)
{
Console.WriteLine("\"int\" is a primitive data type");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("\"int\" is not a primitive data type");
}
}
}
Output:
"int" is a primitive data type

Explanation:
In the above program, we created a class Program that contains the Main() method. The Main() method is the entry point for the program. Here we check the specified type is primitive data-type or not using the IsPrimitive property of Type class and printed the appropriate message on the console screen.
