Learn C#: Numbers and Operators

Console.ReadLine()

The Console.ReadLine() method is used to get user Console.WriteLine("Enter your name: ");
input. The user input can be stored in a variable. This
method can also be used to prompt the user to press
string name = Console.ReadLine();
enter on the keyboard.

Comments

Comments are bits of text that are not executed. These // This is a single line comment
lines can be used to leave notes and increase the
readability of the program.
Single line comments are created with two /* This is a multi-line comment
forward slashes // . and continues until the end
Multi-line comments start with /* and end
of comment symbol is reached */
with */ . They are useful for commenting out
large blocks of code.

Console.WriteLine()

The Console.WriteLine() method is used to print Console.WriteLine("Hello, world!");


text to the console. It can also be used to print other
data types and values stored in variables.
// Prints: Hello, world!

Arithmetic Operators

Arithmetic operators are used to perform basic int result;


mathematical operations on numerical values:
+ addition operator
- subtraction operator result = 10 + 5; // 15
* multiplication operator
/ division operator result = 10 - 5; // 5
% modulo operator (returns the remainder)

result = 10 * 5; // 50

result = 10 / 5; // 2

result = 10 % 5; // 0

String Interpolation in C#

String interpolation provides a more readable and int id = 100


convenient syntax to create formatted strings. It allows
us to insert variable values and expressions in the
middle of a string so that we don’t have to worry about // We can use an expression with a string
punctuation or spaces. interpolation.
string multipliedNumber = $"The
multiplied ID is {id * 10}.";

Console.WriteLine(multipliedNumber);
// This code would output "The multiplied
ID is 1000."

Built-in Math Methods

In C#, Math provides many built-in methods for double x = -80;


performing advanced mathematical operations. Some
common methods include:
Math.Abs() — calculates the absolute value of double absValue = Math.Abs(x); // 80
a given number double sqRoot = Math.Sqrt(absValue); //
Math.Sqrt() — calculates the of a given
8.94427190999916
number
Math.Floor() — rounds the given number double floored = Math.Floor(sqRoot); // 8
down to the nearest integer double smaller = Math.Min(x, floored); //
Math.Min() — takes 2 values of the same type -80
and returns the value that is less

Operator Shortcuts

C# offers several shortcuts for condensing simple int a = 0;


operations.
The addition ( + ) and subtraction ( - ) operators can be
doubled to form the increment ( ++ ) and decrement a++; // a = 1
( -- ) operators. ++ increases a variable’s value by 1, a += 1; // a = 2
and -- lowers it by 1.
a *= 7; // a = 14
+ , - , * , / , and % can all be combined with the
a--; // a = 13
equals sign ( = ) to form compound assignment
operators, such as += , the compound addition a %= 7; // a = 6
operator. These operators take a variable to the left
and a value to the right, perform the specified
arithmetic operation, and assign the result back into
the variable.
