How does eqauls and hash code works together in C# ?

Question

Hi, How does eqauls and hash code works together in C# ? Can you please elaborate? Thanks in advance,

Answer 1

For example, “if two objects compare as equal, the GetHashCode() method for each object must return the same value. However, if two objects do not compare as equal, the GetHashCode() methods for the two objects do not have to return different values”.

The aspects can be found in documentation:
