Dynamic evaluation

intermediate

I think I'm misunderstanding something about

dynamic

dynamic

... so we have this scenario:

dynamic i = 5;
var b = Check<bool>(i);

dynamic i = 5;
var b = Check<bool>(i);

Here

Check

Check

is defined like this:

public static bool Check(dynamic i) {
    return i > 3;
}

public static bool Check(dynamic i) {
    return i > 3;
}

I would now expect the variable

to be of type bool even at compile time. However, hovering over the variable it shows as

dynamic

dynamic

. Why is that? Shouldn't the compiler be able to infer the type? Do I have to use

bool b =

bool b =

here?
