❔ Consider struct or class types for small event args

Do you consider to define small event args (e.g. two floats or ints inside) as struct type to avoid GC especially for events which happen frequently?

❔ Nullable enums or None inside

Suppose there are some known tasks like Carry, Build, etc. A worker can be idle or busy. If they are busy, a task is assigned to them. Which one do you prefer to define task types?

public enum TaskType{
   None = 0,
   //...
}
TaskType Type;

public enum TaskType{
   None = 0,
   //...
}
TaskType Type;

public enum TaskType{
   Build = 0,
   //...
}
TaskType? Type;

public enum TaskType{
   Build = 0,
   //...
}
TaskType? Type;

Imo, The second one

❔ Exists a node in priority queue or not (O(1)) with value type nodes

In reference types, it is OK. There is an array of a struct type(Element) and I would like to swap some elements in it. Each element keeps its index as well. Outside, an element of that array has been stored in a variable for example. Because it is value type, when swapping elements of the array and update index field, it does not reflect it, what is your idea?

public struct Element{
   //...
   public int Index;
}

public struct Element{
   //...
   public int Index;
}

var el = elements[10];

var el = elements[10];

swap element(10) with element(5) and update index field inside. Now, index in el is not updated because it is value type My original situation is priority queue implemented for value types. I keep index of nodes inside nodes. When the positions of those nodes change (heapify up/down), indices change. Now, suppose I have kept a node of the priority queue in a variable. So, the index is wrong and obsolete I want to know if a node exists in a priority queue or not (O(1)) but with value type nodes not ref types and then update the priority value for that node

❔ Generally, how do you implement a readonly struct?

Hi. Generally, how do you implement a readonly struct? I mean define readonly fields or getter? What is the difference? What about defensive copy? Suppose that struct type contains primitive value types like int, float and also other struct types

❔ static fields for struct types

(1)

public static class StructA  
{
   public static readonly StructA  ValueA = new (..) ;
}

public static class StructA  
{
   public static readonly StructA  ValueA = new (..) ;
}

or as Utility class

public static class Utility
{
   public static readonly StructA  ValueA = new (..) ;
}

public static class Utility
{
   public static readonly StructA  ValueA = new (..) ;
}

(2)

public static class Utility
{
   private static readonly StructA  _valueA = new (..) ;
   public static StructA ValueA => _valueA;
}

public static class Utility
{
   private static readonly StructA  _valueA = new (..) ;
   public static StructA ValueA => _valueA;
}

The first and second one are the same but I have seen some libs prefer to implement them like (2) (3)

public static class Utility
{
   // Initialize every time.
   public static StructA ValueA => new(..);
}

public static class Utility
{
   // Initialize every time.
   public static StructA ValueA => new(..);
}

and what is the benefit of implementation (3)

Is there any reason why comparing struct types with null does not result in compile error?

When comparing struct types with null, it is always false. So, why doesn't the compiler throw compilation error? When and where do we want to compare struct types with null?! never because it is a logical bug

❔ Task.WhenAll does not work without Task.Run inside

Inside a task, _pathFinder.FindPath is not called. returnFirstPath is false (Task.WhenAll) but if I change list.Add(new Task<PathResult>(action)); to list.Add(Task.Run(action));, it works. Another question, I should use Task.Run to be sure it runs in different threads and get results faster?

    for (var j = 0; j < roadPoints.Length; j++)
                {
                    var j1 = j;

❔ Separating struct array data

Is it worth separating fields of array data (struct array) into different data structures so that cache hit count increases? Because the struct size reduces and more elements of the array can be cached When I say separation I mean smart separation (relevant data in a struct)
