Making your own "int" or "string" class

Ask a question
I disassembled the .NET 'System' DLL and looked at the source code for the variable classes (string, int, byte, etc.) to see if I could figure out how to make a class that could take on a value. I noticed that the "Int32" class inherits the following: IComparable, IFormattable, IConvertible, IComparable<int>, IEquatable<int>.

The String and Int32 classes are not inheritable, and I can't figure out what in these inherited interfaces allows the classes to hold a value. What I would want is something like this:

public class MyVariable : //inherits here
{
//Code in here that allows it to get/set the value
}

public static class Main(string[] args)
{
MyVariable a = "This is my own custom variable!";
MyVariable b = 2976;

if(a == "Hello") { }
if(b = 10) { }
Console.WriteLine(a.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(a.ToString());
}
