class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        DataTable table = new DataTable("Employees");
        table.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
        table.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));

        table.RowDeleted += Table_RowDeleted;

        DataRow row = table.NewRow();
        row["Id"] = 1;
        row["Name"] = "Alice";
        table.Rows.Add(row);
        table.AcceptChanges();

        row.Delete(); // Triggers RowDeleted event
    }

    private static void Table_RowDeleted(object sender, DataRowChangeEventArgs e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($""Row deleted: Id={e.Row["Id"]}, Name={e.Row["Name"]}"");
    }
}
