   • Choose a location to save your project.
   • Click "Create."

5. Write Your First Code:

• Visual Studio will create a basic console application for you.
• Open the Program.cs file in the editor.

6. using System; class Program { static void Main() { Console.WriteLine("Hello, C#! Welcome to your first program."); } }

1. Run Your Program:

   • Press F5 or click the "Start Debugging" button (green arrow) to build and run your application.
   • You should see the output in the console window: "Hello, C#! Welcome to your first program."

Congratulations! You've created and run your first C# program.
