Overloaded Area Calculator Assignment

This C# program uses a menu driven do-while loop to calculate the areas of different shapes. The user is prompted to select calculating the area of a square, rectangle, triangle or exit. Based on their selection, the appropriate area formula is called to calculate the area using side lengths read from user input. The results are output and the user is returned to the menu until exiting.
