 ## Remarks  
  Languages typically do not require a class to declare inheritance from <xref:System.Object> because the inheritance is implicit.  
   
- Because all classes in the .NET Framework are derived from <xref:System.Object>, every method defined in the <xref:System.Object> class is available in all objects in the system. Derived classes can and do override some of these methods, including:

- Two objects that are equal return hash codes that are equal. However, the reverse is not true: equal hash codes do not imply object equality, because different (unequal) objects can have identical hash codes. Furthermore, the .NET Framework does not guarantee the default implementation of the <xref:System.Object.GetHashCode%2A> method, and the value this method returns may differ between .NET Framework versions and platforms, such as 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. For these reasons, do not use the default implementation of this method as a unique object identifier for hashing purposes. Two consequences follow from this:
