Classes in c#:

consider the following code example,which desines a class:


plublic class hello
{

public static void main(string[] args)

{

system.concole.writeline("hello, world! \n");

}

}



the precending class declaration provides a method main() that will display the message "hello, world!" on your screen. The parts of the preceding code need the be examined.


The Main() Function



The first line of code that a C# compiler looks for in the source fle compiles is the mail() function is the entry point of the application.

The main() funtion is ideally used to create objects and invoke member functions.



The class keyword



The class keyword is used to declare a class. keywords are reserved words that have a special meaning. Here, the class keyword defines the class Hello. the braces, knon as delimiters, are used to indicate the start and end of class body.


Example:

Class Hello
{
....
}



The class Name

The class keyword is followed by the name of the class. in the preceding example, hello is the name of the class defined by using the class keyword. When you create classes, you must consider the following naming convention and rules.


Class Naming Conventions in C#


class names should follow certain naming conventions or guidelines. A class name:

* should be meaningful(strongly recommended).
