The following code causes a compiler error, as it is ambiguous call but the problem if we use object instead of ArrayList no error happens and the string version works fine; Do you have an explanation for that?

class A
{
    public A(string x)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("string");
    }
    public A(ArrayList x)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("ArrayList");
    }

}
    static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            A o = new A(null);
        }
