Questions This Video Answers
What is C# used for?
C# is a versatile language used for developing a wide range of applications, including desktop applications, web applications, mobile apps, and games.

How do I get user input in C#?
You can use the `Console.ReadLine()` method to get input from the user via the console. Remember to convert the input to the appropriate data type if needed.

What are the basic data types in C#?
The basic data types in C# include `string`, `int`, `double`, `float`, `char`, and `bool`.

What is a method in C#?
A method is a block of code that performs a specific task. It can accept parameters and return a value.

How do I make decisions in my C# code?
You can use `if`, `else if`, and `else` statements to execute different blocks of code based on conditions.

What are loops used for in C#?
Loops are used to repeat a block of code multiple times. C# provides `for`, `while`, and `do-while` loops.

What is an array in C#?
An array is a data structure that stores a collection of elements of the same data type.

What are classes and objects in C#?
A class is a blueprint for creating objects. An object is an instance of a class. Classes define the attributes and behaviors of objects.

What is inheritance in C#?
Inheritance is a mechanism that allows a class to inherit properties and methods from another class. This promotes code reusability.

How do I handle errors in C#?
You can use `try-catch` blocks to handle exceptions and prevent your program from crashing when errors occur.

What are static attributes and methods?
Static attributes and methods belong to the class itself, rather than to individual objects. They are shared across all instances of the class.

What are getters and setters?
Getters and setters are methods used to control access to class attributes, allowing you to encapsulate data and enforce validation rules.
