new string syntax c# code example

Example 1: c sharp string interpolation

// To use interpolation in strings, put the name of the relevant
// variable between brackets {} and put a dollar sign $ in front
// of the string. This will tell C# to use interpolation.
double a = 3;
double b = 4;
Console.WriteLine($"Area of {a} and {b} is {0.5 * a * b}");

Example 2: c# viariable in string

string name = "Mark";
var date = DateTime.Now;

// Composite formatting:
Console.WriteLine("Hello, {0}! Today is {1}, it's {2:HH:mm} now.", name, date.DayOfWeek, date);
// String interpolation:
Console.WriteLine($"Hello, {name}! Today is {date.DayOfWeek}, it's {date:HH:mm} now.");
// Both calls produce the same output that is similar to:
// Hello, Mark! Today is Wednesday, it's 19:40 now.
