How to start a C# project

[Clint]

This is a silly question, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to simply start a C# project that isn't a Windows Form Application.  There are about two dozen different options when I try to start a new project in visual studio.  I tried Console Application, but running the program seemed to open the console for a split second and then closes, and I couldn't figure out where to put output.  I assume I can just spit my answer out through Console.Writeline, right?

Use the console aplication.  The output window closes as soon as execution terminates.  Use Console.ReadLine() to pause execution after displaying your results.

Good suggestion. Another option, if you are more comfortable with Windows Form Applications, is to make a drop-dead simple GUI. Just make a button that runs your code when you push it . . .

static void pause()

{

    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to continue...");

    Console.ReadLine();

}

That should do it

Got it.  Thanks!
