Simple problem with brackets [modified]
-
Hello all, I have just started programming with c# (2008). The only programming experience that i have ever had is visual basic. I am only 12 years old. I have purchased a c# 2009 for dummies book and that does not seem to help my current problem. My problem is that I am unable to write things. This is what i mean: Console.WriteLine("Enter your name:"); Above both the brackets i get a red line and a error saying "invalid token '(' in class, struct, or interface member declaration. I also get the same message for the other bracket. "invalid token ')' in class, struct, or interface member declaration. I have tried everything and asked everybody however know one seems to know a solution, I would deeply appreciate if anybody woul help me. Thank you, Aman

Hello World C# Go through this tutorial. It should help get you on the right start. You can even download the code and try to compile that by itself. If that fails to compile then you may have issues with how your directories are set up. Best of luck!

Dear VengefulSakhmet, Thank you very much. May i know here to find your tutorial? Thank you, Aman
You see at the top of the message the 'Hello World C#' bit? Click on it, it's a link. The different colour, sort of gives this away.

Dear Aman, The tutorial I had posted at the top called "Hello World C#" should work correctly. Perhaps your directories and libraries are not properly set up. Take a look at: Visual Studio Getting Started. I would go to the FAQ section and look up installation procedures. Also post your full code. I assume you are trying to write a small program for starters, so it shouldn't be hard to tell if your program would compile properly in the right environment. Best of luck! -Laurel

Hello, I asumed that at first. However all my previous programs had worked properly without a error, I even copied and pasted it but the brackets still have the red line underneath. I have not touched the settings, Anyway i will look at the getting started thing. Thank you very much for helping me. I hope that it will help me a lot and fix my unusual problem. Thank you for all your support, Aman
