2.1.1 Variables and Expressions,typeconversion
Variables and constant are basic building block of
programming language .
A variable is a name given to memory location whose
value may change during the program execution.
C# syntax for declaring variables:-
<datatype> <varname>;
For example :int num;
On the other hand ,a constant is a value which never
changes during the program execution.
C# syntax for declaring constant:
<const><datatype> <constName>;
For example: const int num;

Expressions:-
An expression in C# is a combination of operands
(variables, literals, method calls) and operators that can be
evaluated to a single value. To be precise, an expression
must have at least one operand but may not have any
operator.
Let's look at the example below:
double temperature;
temperature = 42.05;
int a, b, c, sum; sum = a + b + c;
if (age>=18 && age<58)
Console.WriteLine("Eligible to work");

Console Class in C#:-
Methods of Console class in C#:
Method Description
Clear() To clear the screen
Write(“string”)
Display the specified message on the
console window
WriteLine(“string”)
Same as the write method but
automatically moves the cursor to the
next line after printing the message.
Write(variable) Displays the value of the given variable
WriteLine(variable)
Displays the value of the given variable
along with moving the cursor to the next
line after printing the value of the
variable.

Console Class in C#:-
Methods of Console class in C#:
Method Description
Read()
Read a single character from the keyboard and returns its
ASCII value. The Datatype should be int as it returns the
ASCII value.
ReadLine()
Reads a string value from the keyboard and returns the entered
value only. As it returns the entered string value so the DataType
is going to be a string.
ReadKey()
read any key from the console. By entering this line of code, the
program will wait and not exit immediately. The program will wait
for the user to enter any key before finally exiting. If you don't
include this statement in code, the program will exit as soon as it
is run.

C# Type Casting
Type casting is when you assign a value of one data type to
another type.
In C#, there are two types of casting:
•Implicit Casting (automatically) - converting a smaller type to a
larger type size
char -> int -> long -> float -> double
•Explicit Casting (manually) - converting a larger type to a
smaller size type
double -> float -> long -> int -> char

Conversion Methods
Int.Parse() Convert Class Int.TryParse()
It is used to convert
string to int
any datatype to int
string to int
Can not handle null
values
Can handle null values Can handle null values

2.1.2 Flow Control
Flow Control allows us to execute code based on some
conditions. It also allows to execute the code specified number
of times.
Following are the Flow control statements:-
i. Selection statements are used to select one of number of
possible statements for execution based on the value of
some expression. In this group are if and switch
statements.
ii. Iteration statements are used to repeatedly execute an
embedded statements. In this group are the
while,do,for,and foreach statements .
iii. Jump statements are used to transfer control. In this
group are the break,continue,goto,throw,return,and yield
statements.

2.1.3 Functions, Delegates
Functions:-
In C# a function is defined as a technique of
wrapping code to perform a certain task and then
return a value. It is quite different than its
predecessor programming languages like C or
C++. Here the functions do not exist alone.
Functions are a part of the OOPs approach.
<visibility> <return type> <name>(<parameters>)
{
<function code>
}

Introduction to C#
Functions:-
public void DoStuff()
{
Console.WriteLine("I'm doing something...");
}
public int AddNumbers(int number1, int number2)
{
int result = number1 + number2;
return result;
}
int result = AddNumbers(10, 5);
Console.WriteLine(result);

Functions:-
What is a Parameter?
Parameter define the set of arguments that must
be provided for that method.
Example -:
void calculate(int a, string b);

Functions:-
Parameter Modifiers
Usually methods take parameters. There are many ways
to pass the parameters and for this C# provides some
parameter modifiers. Look at them below.
1. none (or default) parameter
2. ref (reference) parameter
3. out (output) parameter
4. params (parameters) parameter

i.
Chapter 2
Introduction to C#
Functions:-
Parameter Modifiers
1. none (or default) parameter: -
 If a parameter is not attached with
any modifier, then the parameter's
value is passed to the method.
 This is also known as call-by-value
and it is the default for any parameter.
X = 20;
Console.WriteLine(x);

pass argument by reference.

• 2. ref (reference) parameter: -
If a parameter is attached with a ref
modifier, then changes will be made in a
method that affect the calling method.
This is also known as call-by-reference.
X = 20;
Console.WriteLine(&x);

 C# provides the out parameter modifier
which is similar to ref arguments.
 To pass by reference the out modifier
should be used when declaring and
calling the method.

Chapter 2
Introduction to C#
Functions:-
Parameter Modifiers
•3.out (output) parameter: -
If a parameter is attached with an out
modifier, then we can return a value to a
calling method without using a return
statement.

Introduction to C#
Functions:-
Parameter Modifiers
•4. params (parameters) parameter: -
 If a parameter is attached with a params
modifier, then we can send multiple
arguments as a single parameter.
 Any method can have only one params
modifier and it should be the last parameter
for the method.

Functions:-
Parameter Modifiers
differences between output (out) and reference (ref)
parameters:
 Ref parameters Needs to be initialized before
passing it to the function.
 Out parameters Need not be initialized while
calling the function. But need to be initialized in
the called function.
