C# Programming

Method header

" Main "

" string literal "

No, class headers and method headers do not end with a semicolon because they are terminated with a body of code inside braces.

Marks the beginning of a comment.

• ex.)
• Console.WriteLine("Hello Martha!"); //This line will display saying "Hello Martha!"

Used in a method header.

• ex.)
• public static void Main ( )

Enclose a group of statements, such as the contents of a class or a method.

• ex.)
• public static void Main ( )
• {
• Console.WriteLine("Hello Martha!");
• }

Enclose a string of characters, such as a message that is printed on the screen.

• ex.)
• Console.WriteLine("Today is my birthday!");

Marks the end of a complete programming statement.

The Write method does not advance the cursor to the next line after the message is displayed, the WriteLine method does.

• ex.)
• public static void Main ( )
• {
• Console.Write("These are our top sellers: \n");
• Console.Write("Computer games \n");
• Console.WriteLine("Coffee \n");
• Console.Write("Aspirin \n");
• }

• Program Output:
• These are our top sellers:
• Computer games
• Coffee

**Notice it does not display Aspirin. This is because you used a WriteLine before it, which made it so it didn't advance to the next line in code.

• An escape sequence allows you to control the way output is displayed by embedding comands within the string itself.
• To use an escape sequence you start with a backslash character " \ " and then followed by one or more control characters.

• ex.)
• \n

Newline - advances the cursor to the next line for subsequent printing.
