Answer 1

but this code dosent work

Because your variables are private and their scope is limited to the MainPage class.

If you want them to be public, you have to add the public keyword.

Better: you should use properties instead:

public string Result { get; set; }

---

Also, you can’t write a global variable. As C# is an object-oriented programming language, you’ll have to use an instance of your MainPage class to access to your properties:

MainPage myPage = new MainPage();
....
textBlock1.Text = myPage.Result;

---

Another thing: you’re using variables/properties, not functions. So you can’t write result.value();. Use result.value; instead.

I suggest you to have a look at this MSDN article about properties.
