Welocme to the Learn C-Sharp step by step section. C# is a high programming language. It has taken the best features from C++ and JAVA. C# is probably the best programming language.

Content: Learn C-Sharp step by step

Loops in C-Sharp

C# (C sharp) basics:

1. How to write on screen in C#.

Console.WriteLine("I have been studying C# for 4 weeks!");

This will appear on screen, and will disappear immediately. So, We are writing another statement.

Console.WriteLine("I have benn studying C# for 4 weeks!");
Console.ReadLine();

Now it will remain on screen, unless we press Enter key.
Here we see that we can write letters, numbers and special characters (#) on screen.

String: String is name of variable, and it could be anything letters, numbers and special charecters. We can use string for numbers also, but when we need any arithmetical operation, we use integers, decimals etc as variables

2. String Concatenation:
We can add two strings, called string concatenation. For example, we are adding first name and second name to get full name.

string a = "John ";
string b = "Smith";
string c = a + b;
Console.WriteLine(c);
Console.ReadLine();

3. Adding two numbers:

int a=10;
int b=12;
int c=a+b;
Console.WriteLine(c);
Console.ReadLine();

Here, we use integers as variables, because we want to add them (arithmetical operation).
Integers does NOT take fractional (decimal) values. If we want to perform arithmetical operation of fractional values; we can take double as variables.

double a = 3.4;
double b = 5.2;
double c = a + b;
Console.WriteLine(c);
Console.ReadLine();

4. How C# take input:
The program will take input from user, and will display it on screen

string name = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(name);
Console.ReadLine();

Integer as input:
Input is always in string. So for integer, we need to convert it first.

int number = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
Console.WriteLine(number);
Console.ReadLine();

Remember: As the input is always in string, so for integers as input we need to convert it first.

5. Take two inputs (integers) from user and add them.

int number1 = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
int number2 = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
int number3 = number1 + number2;
Console.WriteLine(number3);
Console.ReadLine();

6. Take two inputs (string) from user, and add them.

string firstname = Console.ReadLine();
string lastname = Console.ReadLine();
string fullname = firstname + lastname;
Console.WriteLine(fullname);
Console.ReadLine();

As, input is always in string, so we did not need to convert it.

Conditional Statements in C#:

The if, if / else, if / else if / else Statement
The switch Statement

The if Statement:
Construction:

if (condition)
{statement}

For example,

int a = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
if (a > 10)
{Console.WriteLine("The number is greater than 10");
Console.ReadLine();

The if / else Statement:
Construction:

if (condition)
{statement}
else
{statement}

For example,

int a = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
if (a > 10)
{Console.WriteLine("The number is greater than 10");}
else
{ Console.WriteLine("The number is 10 or less than 10");}
Console.ReadLine();

The if / else if / else Statement- (also called nested if)
Construction:

if (condition)
{statement}
else if (condition)
{statement}
else
{statement}

For example,

int a = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
if (a > 10)
{Console.WriteLine("The number is greater than 10");}
else if (a == 10)
{Console.WriteLine("The number is 10");}
else
{ Console.WriteLine("The number is less than 10");}
Console.ReadLine();

NOTE: We write = two times.

The switch Statement:
Construction:

switch (integer a)
{
case 1:
statement
break;
case 2:
statement
break;
default:
statement
break;
}

NOTE: The default in switch statement is equaivalent to else in if statement.
For example,

int week = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
switch (week)
{
case 1:
Console.WriteLine("Monday");
break;
Console.WriteLine("Tuesday");
break;
case 3:
Console.WriteLine("Wednesday");
break;
case 4:
Console.WriteLine("Thursday");
break;
case 5:
Console.WriteLine("Friday");
break;
case 6:
Console.WriteLine("Saturday");
break;
case 7:
Console.WriteLine("Sunday");
break;
default:
Console.WriteLine("NOT KNOWN");
break;
}
Console.ReadLine();

The for loop in C#
Construction

for (initial point; ending point; increament)
{
Statement(s)
}

For example, the following program will write counting from 1 to 20.

for (int i = 1; i < 21; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine(i);
}
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write table of 2 using for loop in C#.

for (int i = 1; i < 11; i++)
{
int tab = 2 * i;
Console.WriteLine(tab);
}
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write a program that print even numbers from 1 to 100.

for (int i = 1; i < 101; i++)
{
if (i % 2 == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine(i);
}
}
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write a program that take input from user, and write table of that number.

Console.WriteLine("Enter a number:");
int num = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
for (int i = 1; i < 11; i++)
{
int tab = i * num;
Console.WriteLine(tab);
}
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write a program in C sharp, to find the factorial of 5.

int fact = 1;
for (int i = 5; i > 0; i--)
{
fact=fact*i;
}
Console.WriteLine(fact);
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write a program that take input from user, and find factorial of that number.

Console.WriteLine("Enter a number:");
int num = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
Console.WriteLine("Its factorial is:");
int fact = 1;
for (int i = num; i > 0; i--)
{
fact=fact*i;
}
Console.WriteLine(fact);
Console.ReadLine();

The while Loop
Construction:

while (condition)
{
statement(s)
}

Q. Write a program in C# using while loop, that take a number from user and return cube of that number. And the program ends when the input is 11.

int num = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
int cube = num * num * num;
while (num != 11)
{
Console.WriteLine(cube);
break;
}
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write a program that starts from 0, increase 1 by 1, and end before 10 using while loop in C Sharp.

int number = 0;
while (number < 10)
{
Console.WriteLine(number);
number = number + 1;
}
Console.ReadLine();

The do - while loop
Construction

do
{
statement(s)
}
while
{
statement(s)
}

Q. Write a program in C Sharp using do - while loop, that take a number, and increase it 2 by 2, and ends before 30.

int num = Convert.ToInt16(Console.ReadLine());
do
{
Console.WriteLine(num);
num = num + 2;
}
while (num < 30);
Console.ReadLine();

Array in C#
Construction

variable type [] variable name = new variable type [length]

Array of type integer with constant values

int[] myarray = new int[3] { 2, 5, 9 };
Console.WriteLine(myarray[0]);
Console.ReadLine();

NOTE:index 0 inside Console.WriteLine statement represents index of array, that is 2.
In the above myarray; index 0 = 2, index 1 = 5, index 2 = 9.
If we replace 0 by 1, the program will show 5, and for 2, the program will show 9.

string[] name = new string [3] { "Bilal", "Sohail", "Afzal" };
Console.WriteLine(name[0]);
Console.ReadLine();

name[2] = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(name);
Console.ReadLine();

Q. Write an array in C# of type integer that take 10 numbers as input (Use for loop for simplicity).

}
Console.WriteLine(a);
Console.ReadLine();

}
double a = 0;
double b = 0;
for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++)
{
a = a + myarray[j];
b = a / 10;
}
Console.WriteLine(b);
Console.ReadLine();
