Introduction
The ability to find out information about objects at run-time is called Reflection. In Reflection we can find out the object’s class, details of an object’s methods, and even create one dynamically at runtime. Reflection is a powerful mechanism with the System.Reflection namespace contains nearly forty classes and interface. The Type class is the root of all reflection operations and the Object that represents a type inside the system. Type is an abstract base class that allows multiple implementations.
This class is the primary means by which we can access metadata, and it acts as a gateway to the Reflection API. It provides methods for obtaining information about a type declaration, such as the constructors, methods, fields, properties, and events of a class, as well as the module and the assembly in which the class is deployed.

Yeh,there are many article which drive one concept or another .But the most fascinating thing is logics.
Nobody is born whith all in it's mind(not even the mind code that is hash distribution,it's work well as we know) we obtain a sum of knowledge by education,and other tends to be our proper discover,The way in which logic states about sets proofs ,df,theo,corrl,meta's and so one.We look for many model of thinking ,some of them already implemented,other in reasearch phase.Writing about proper transformation is not something wrong,and become obvious that simple ideea has to be presented in
theortical forms,and these theoretical forms should became a standard of prezentation in order to avoid affirmative.That is why we need to build logic theories and present them as should be presented.
