new class c# code example

Example 1: c# class declaration

//[access modifier] - [class] - [identifier]
public class Customer
{
   // Fields, properties, methods and events go here...
}

Example 2: class in c#

public class Car
{  
    // fields
    public bool isDriving = false;
    
    // constructor
    public Car( string make )
    {
        Make = make;
    }
	
    // properties
    private string _make = string.Empty;
    public string Make
    {
        get { return _make; }
        set { _make = value; } 
    }
    
    // methods
    public void drive()
    {
        if( isDriving )
        {
			// Car is already moving
        }
        else
		{
            // start driving the car
            isDriving = true;
    	}        
    }

    public void stop()
    {
		if( isDriving )
		{
			// stop the car 
			isDriving = false;
		}
        else
        {
			// car is already not moving
        }        
    }      
}
