## is
 | 
						|
The `is` keyword checks if an object is compatible with a given type, or (starting with C# 7) tests an expression against a pattern.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Example
 | 
						|
```csharp
 | 
						|
  int number = 6;
 | 
						|
  Console.WriteLine(number is long);    // False
 | 
						|
  Console.WriteLine(number is double);  // False
 | 
						|
  Console.WriteLine(number is int);     // True
 | 
						|
```
