tyoeof()  

typeof is used to get the type based on a class. It takes class as parameter. If you pass object as parameter it throws an error.

object s = "Hello";

Type t = typeof(object);

Console.WriteLine(t);

Output: System.object

GetType()

GetType is used to get the type based on an object (an instance of a class).It takes object as parameter.

object s = "Hello";

Type t = typeof(object);

Console.WriteLine(t);

Output: System.object
