As always, the bigger problem is adding equality. The Tiny Type should be equal with the inner value – and with the other type with the same value. And, in C#, when you implement equality , there is a whole theory – see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/336aedhh(v=vs.100).aspx .

So the code to define equality is 60 lines long just for defining equality for

?
1
public class TinyType<T>:IEquatable<T>, IEquatable<TinyType<T>>

   

But this is not all. This is the code for testing equality
