Class members

Member	Description
Fields	Fields are variables declared at class scope. A field may be a built-in numeric type or an instance of another class. For example, a calendar class may have a field that contains the current date.
Properties	Properties are methods on a class that are accessed as if they were fields on that class. A property can provide protection for a class field to keep it from being changed without the knowledge of the object.
Methods	Methods define the actions that a class can perform. Methods can take parameters that provide input data, and can return output data through parameters. Methods can also return a value directly, without using a parameter.
Operators	Overloaded operators are considered type members. When you overload an operator, you define it as a public static method in a type. For more information, see [Operator overloading].
Indexers	Indexers enable an object to be indexed in a manner similar to arrays.
Constructors	Constructors are methods that are called when the object is first created. They are often used to initialize the data of an object.
