Understanding C# Fundamentals

This article explores the core concepts of C# programming. C# (pronounced "C sharp") is a modern, object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft. It's widely used for developing a variety of applications, including desktop applications, web applications, and mobile apps.

Variables and Data Types

In C#, you declare variables to store data. C# has several built-in data types, such as:

• int: For whole numbers.
• double: For floating-point numbers (numbers with decimals).
• string: For text.
• bool: For true/false values.

Example:

int age = 30;
string name = "John Doe";
bool isStudent = false;
            

Control Flow

C# supports various control flow statements to control the execution of your code.

• if...else: Executes code based on a condition.
• switch...case: Selects one of several code blocks based on a value.
• for, while, do...while: Used for looping.
