C# (pronounced "see sharp") is a computer programming language. It is developed by Microsoft. It was created to use all capacities of the .NET platform. The first version was released in 2001. C# is a modern language in active development, with the most recent version at time of writing being C# 13, which was released in June 2024 alongside .NET 9.^[2] C#'s development team is led by Anders Hejlsberg, the creator of Delphi.

• The Microsoft .NET platform;
• Free implementation of C# and .NET like Mono developed by Novell, or dotGNU developed by the Free Software Foundation.

Today, C# can be run on most platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS, etc.) without changing the source code. C# can be run on the Xbox 360 platform with a special framework.

C# code is similar to C++ and Java code. The CLR (Common Language Runtime) is needed in order to run a C# program.^[3]

/* This is a simple program in C#.   * It simply shows "Hello, World!" on the screen.  */ using System; namespace HelloWorld {   class Hello   {     static void Main()     {       Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");              // The piece of code below is optional, but is needed to prevent the program from closing immediately.              Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit.");       Console.ReadKey();     }   }  } 

/*   * This program asks for input from the user, i.e. a name. It then prints "Hello [name]", replacing [name] with whatever the person typed in.  */ using System; namespace HelloWorld {   class Hello   {     static void Main()     {       Console.WriteLine("Hello, please type in your name:");       string name = Console.ReadLine();       Console.WriteLine("Hello {0}",name);       Console.ReadKey();     }   }  }
