Constructors are special methods called when an object is created. They initialize the object's state. Types:
Default Constructor: No parameters, provided by compiler if none defined
Parameterized Constructor: Takes parameters for initialization
Copy Constructor: Not directly supported, must be implemented manually
Static Constructor: Initializes static members, called once per type
Private Constructor: Prevents instantiation (often used in singleton pattern)
public class Person
{
// Parameterized constructor
public Person(string name, int age)
{
Name = name;
Age = age;
}
// Static constructor
static Person()
{
// Initialize static members
}
}
