Question

I am trying to create a super basic consol application why does the consol display for less then half a second and then exit?

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace MyHelloWorldApplication
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
     {
        Console.WriteLine("Test");
    }
}
}

You are doing nothing after the Console.Writeline() method so the app will close.

Adding a Console.ReadKey() will stop the app from closing until you have pressed a key.
