Returns an int holding the size of a type* in bytes.

sizeof(bool)    // Returns 1.
sizeof(byte)    // Returns 1.
sizeof(sbyte)   // Returns 1.
sizeof(char)    // Returns 2.
sizeof(short)   // Returns 2.
sizeof(ushort)  // Returns 2.
sizeof(int)     // Returns 4.
sizeof(uint)    // Returns 4.
sizeof(float)   // Returns 4.
sizeof(long)    // Returns 8.
sizeof(ulong)   // Returns 8.
sizeof(double)  // Returns 8.
sizeof(decimal) // Returns 16.

Only supports certain primitive types in safe context.

In an unsafe context, sizeof can be used to return the size of other primitive types and structs.

public struct CustomType
{
    public int value;
}

static void Main()
{
    unsafe
    {
        Console.WriteLine(sizeof(CustomType)); // outputs: 4
    }
}
