C# Basics-Introduction to Console Applications in C#/How to Compile & Run (C#-2)

 

 

Congratulations on taking the first step toward becoming a C# developer! According to my previous blog, you have successfully created the developer environment by setting up Visual studio and creating the C# file in Console Applications. Now you can continue learning from there. Good Luck!

 Introduction to Console Applications

• In C#, a console application is a lightweight application that runs in a command-line interface.
• It is a simple yet powerful way to perform various tasks, such as data processing, text output, and system administration.
• In this post, we'll take a closer look at how to work with previously created console applications.

Step 1:

Open the C# file which you created according to the previous post (C#-1)

 

Then you'll get the default program generated by the visual studio(C-1-1)

(C-1-1)

Ignore all the confusing words in the program such as Using System;, namespace MyFirstProgram, etc. for now. The only thing the above program does is display the text Hello World in the console. (C-1-2)

To Compile and Run a program

• Click on the play button at the top(C-1-3)

• This will create our output in a console window. (C-1-2)

ACTIVITY:
Post your Console Output in the comment section below.

Congratulations! Now you have an understanding on Console applications and compiling and running a program. Let's get to know each and every code line in upcoming posts.
