Introduction to C#

C# (pronounced "C-Sharp") is a simple, modern, general-purpose, object-oriented programming


language developed by Microsoft within its .NET initiative led by Anders Hejlsberg. It is widely
used for the following:

 Web Development (ASP.NET)


 Desktop Applications (Windows Forms, WPF)
 Game Development (Unity)
 Cloud & AI Applications

Write, Compile, & Run C# Code Instantly


Our C# tutorial allows you to execute code inline without leaving the page unlike other sites.
Learn C# hands-on with real-time coding experience right here!

Main features of this tutorial:

 Best for Beginners & Experienced Developers


 Covers Basic to Advanced Topics
 Interactive Compilation - No Setup Needed!

 Click the Edit & RUN button to RUN or EDIT this code.
 Open Compiler
 using System;
 class Program{
 static void Main(string[] args){
 Console.WriteLine("Welcome to TutorialsPoint");
 }
 }

Why Learn C#?


 Versatile Used in Web, Mobile, and Game Development
 Easy to Learn Similar to Java & C++
 Powerful & Secure Type-safe and managed by the .NET runtime

Getting Started with C#


To run C# programs, you need the following tools:

 .NET SDK (Download from dotnet.microsoft.com)


 A Code Editor (VS Code, Visual Studio, or any online compiler)

But wait! You dont need to install anything. Run the examples below right here in our tutorial!
First C# Program "Hello, World!"
Run This Code Instantly by clicking Edit & Run button!

Open Compiler
using System;

class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Tp print "Hello, World!"
Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
}
}
Explanation:

1. using System; Imports System namespace for basic functions


2. class Program Defines a class named Program
3. static void Main() Entry point of the program
4. Console.WriteLine() Prints text to the console

C# Syntax & Basics


C# programs follow a structured format. Heres an example with variables, data types, and user
input:

Test the code below by clicking Edit & Run button! You can modify the values and run the
code to practice well.

Open Compiler
using System;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
int age = 25;
string name = "Alice";

Console.WriteLine("Name: " + name);


Console.WriteLine("Age: " + age);
}
}

C# Variables & Data Types


Data Types in C#
Type Size Example

int 4 bytes int x = 100;

double 8 bytes double pi = 3.14;

char 2 bytes char letter = 'A';

string Varies string name = "C#";

bool 1 byte bool isAlive = true;

Try the Example Below!

Open Compiler
using System;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
double price = 99.99;
bool isAvailable = true;

Console.WriteLine("Price: $" + price);


Console.WriteLine("In Stock: " + isAvailable);
}
}

Modify values & test!

C# Control Statements
Control flow statements help in decision-making and looping.

If-Else Statement

Run This Conditional Check!

Open Compiler
using System;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Console.Write("Enter your age: ");
int age = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
if (age >= 18)
Console.WriteLine("You are eligible to vote!");
else
Console.WriteLine("Sorry, you must be 18+ to vote.");
}
}

Modify values & test!

Loops in C#

C# supports various loops:

Loop Type Usage

for loop Known number of iterations

while loop Repeats while condition is true

do-while loop Runs at least once

Try a Simple Loop:

Open Compiler
using System;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("Iteration: " + i);
}
}
}

Modify the loop condition and see what happens!

C# Functions & Methods


Functions in C# allow code reusability.

Run This Function Example

Open Compiler
using System;
class Program
{
static void Greet(string name)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello, " + name + "!");
}

static void Main()


{
Greet("Alice");
Greet("Bob");
}
}

Modify the function call with different names!

OOP in C# (Classes & Objects)


C# is object-oriented, meaning it uses classes & objects.

Create & Use Objects

Open Compiler
using System;

class Car
{
public string Brand;

public void ShowBrand()


{
Console.WriteLine("Car Brand: " + Brand);
}
}

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Car myCar = new Car();
myCar.Brand = "Tesla";
myCar.ShowBrand();
}
}

Change Brand and see different outputs!

C# File Handling (Read & Write)


Read & Write Files in C#. Try this code on your local computer.
using System;
using System.IO;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
File.WriteAllText("test.txt", "Hello, C#!");
string content = File.ReadAllText("test.txt");
Console.WriteLine("File Content: " + content);
}
}

This will create a file called test.txt in your local directory. Check the content of the file.
