Where are the type names indicated?

Question

When you get the type of the variable, you can check its name:

if (my_type.Name=="Int32")

however it would be more elegant to write

if (my_type.Name==TypeNames.Int32)

to avoid typos. I can define such a class on my own, but maybe there is a definition somewhere?

If yes, where?

Note . Please avoid asking yourself: “Why do you want to get the type of a variable in the first place,” “it’s better to use a“ have, ”etc. Thank you so much!

Edit : in the meantime, I jumped to the conclusion, it would be enough to ignore the type of the object (the variable my_type) and instead check the object. In other words, my_type is not required. I forgot about the null case :-( Less code, more sleep, what I need ;-)
