Is C# is fully object oriented or not?

[Soul Search]

Yes C# is fully Object Oriented as the basis of C# depends solely on classes and objects as is the case with other OO Languages like Java. There is difference in functionality provided by the two languages but the basic structure is quite similar. Regards, Kamal Soul Search

That's not really an answer as apparently SO can't agree! Personally I'd say that it is almost 100% OO, everything in C# is an object, even primitive types ... except methods and classes, which can easily be manipulated into object types (Delegate and Type respectively), but which are not actually objects in and of themselves.

What exactly do you mean by "fully object oriented"? That doesn't seem to be a well-defined term.

[Wayne Gaylard]

Please can you define what you mean by well-defined term . :-D

Not fully recoursive. This is.

C# is object oriented.

[Pete OHanlon]

As Bill points out, just how OO is it? Does the fact that it allows static methods and objects adhere to OO tenets?

[Pete OHanlon]

You have several excellent answers here, but I will throw a one into the mix - is a language that supports static methods and objects fully object oriented? Does that fit into a classical definition of OO?
