Different between copy and clone in c#?

Copy and Clone

Clone:-


It only copies structure, does not copy data. Creates another reference (Pointer) to the same location. 

Example 1-
dt=ds.Table[0].clone(); //will create only the structure of table not data.
 

Example 2-
private void GetClone(DataTable table)
{
    // Get a clone of the original DataTable.
    DataTable cloneTable;
    cloneTable = table.Clone();
     
 }
 


Copy:- 




Copies both Structure and data. Creates two different references to two different Address Spaces. 
copy is deep copy. copy the structure and data of the object.

Example 
DataTable dt=new DataTable();

dt=ds.Tables[0].copy(); // Will copy all the data and structure to dt table



Dataset .Copy: - It copies both structure and data. 
Dataset .Clone: - It only copies structure, does not copy data.
