Prompt

Show typeof(T) vs T.GetType() inside a generic method. Demonstrate typeof(T) is the static declared type and GetType() is the runtime type for boxed values.

Zero-point index (what the engine surfaced)

ZPI-ZPI-0019 | 2026-05-11T09:59:01Z Show typeof(T) vs T.GetType() inside a generic method. Demonstrate typeof(T) is the static declared type and GetType() is the runtime type for boxed values. ZERO POINT — 3 entries (structural invariants) ● hsl(7.18, 100%, 50%) class [feature] ● hsl(0.00, 100%, 50%) public [feature] ● hsl(84.10, 100%, 50%) namespace [feature] UNOBSERVED — 0 entries (implied truths) OBSERVED — 3 entries (explicit in request) ◉ hsl(19.49, 100%, 15%) static [feature] ◉ hsl(55.38, 100%, 15%) typeof [feature] ◉ hsl(196.92, 100%, 15%) typeof [feature] COMPLEXITY │ 6 entries │ spread: 177° │ band: LOW

Baseline response (no ZPI)

```csharp using System; public class Program { public static void CheckType<T>(T obj) { Console.WriteLine($"Type of T: {typeof(T)}"); Console.WriteLine($"Type of obj: {obj.GetType()}"); } public static void Main() { object obj = "Hello"; CheckType(obj); } } ```

Enhanced response (with ZPI)

```csharp using System; public class Program { public static void Main() { object obj = "Hello"; PrintTypes(obj); } public static void PrintTypes<T>(T value) { Console.WriteLine($"typeof(T): {typeof(T)}"); Console.WriteLine($"value.GetType(): {value.GetType()}"); } } ``` In this example, `typeof(T)` will print `System.Object` because `T` is declared as `object` in the `Main` method. However, `value.GetType()` will print `System.String` because the actual runtime type of the `obj` variable is `string`. This demonstrates that `typeof(T)` returns the static declared type, while `GetType()` returns the runtime type of the value.

Grader chain

Each grader reads the same baseline + enhanced pair and casts an independent verdict. Disagreement is the framework's own signal — not noise to be averaged away.
