Study Notes
C# Basic Structure of a Console Program
- Using Directive:
using System;allows access to classes within the System namespace. - Namespace: Organizes code, grouping classes and other namespaces together.
- Class Definition:
public class HelloWorldserves as a container for methods and data, necessitating that all executable code resides within a class. - Main Method: Defined as
public static void Main(string[] args), this is the entry point for any C# program. Code within its curly brackets is executed. - Output Method:
Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");prints output to the console. Ends with a semicolon; behaves differently thanConsole.Write(), which does not append a new line.
Code Comments
- Single-line Comments: Initiate with
//, ignored by the compiler until the end of the line. - Multi-line Comments: Use
/* comment */, allowing longer explanations without execution.
Identifiers
- Definition: Unique names assigned to variables for identification.
- Naming Guidelines: Can include letters, digits, and underscores; should start with a letter or underscore; not contain whitespace; case-sensitive; cannot use reserved words.
Variables
- Purpose: Store data, requiring declaration to set a type and name.
- Examples:
int myNumber = 5;- Integer.double myFloatNumber = 5.99;- Floating-point number.char myLetter = 'D';- Single character.string myText = "Hello";- Text string.bool myBoolean = true;- Boolean value.
Data Types
- Specifies size & type of variable values. Proper usage prevents errors and improves code clarity.
- Common Data Types:
int: 4 bytes, whole numbers (-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647).long: 8 bytes, larger whole numbers.float: 4 bytes, fractional numbers with 7-digit precision.double: 8 bytes, fractional numbers with 15-digit precision.bool: 1 bit, true or false value.char: 2 bytes, single character.string: 2 bytes per character, text sequence.
Integer Types
- Int: Preferred for numeric values fitting in the specified range.
- Long: Used for larger numeric needs when
intis insufficient.
Floating Point Types
- Float: 32-bit, 7-digit precision, suffix with 'F' to initialize.
- Double: 64-bit, 14-15 digit precision, default for floating-point numbers.
- Decimal: 128-bit, suitable for financial calculations, suffix with 'm'.
Boolean and Character Types
- Boolean: Defined with
bool, accepts onlytrueorfalse. - Char: Encloses a single character in single quotes.
Operators
-
Arithmetic Operators: Perform mathematical operations.
+Addition,-Subtraction,*Multiplication,/Division,%Modulus,++Increment,--Decrement.
-
Relational Operators: Compare values.
==,!=,>,<,>=,<=.
