Question

so my code displays data parsed form xml files to the console. How can I pause the Console Output box on the screen so I can read the data.

 var query = from file in fileEntries
                        let doc = XDocument.Load(file)
                        let x = doc.Descendants("XAxisCalib").Single()
                        let y = doc.Descendants("YAxisCalib").Single()
                        let z = doc.Descendants("ZAxisCalib").Single()
                        select new
                       {

                           XMax = x.Element("Max").Value,
                           XMin = x.Element("Min").Value,
                           YMax = y.Element("Max").Value,
                           YMin = y.Element("Min").Value,
                           ZMax = z.Element("Max").Value,
                           ZMin = z.Element("Min").Value
                       };


            var results = from item in query
                          select new
                          {
            XMaxResult = TryParseWithDefault(item.XMax, double.NaN) <= 290.0 ? "pass" : "fail",
            XMinResult = TryParseWithDefault(item.XMin, double.NaN) >= -50.0 ? "pass" : "fail",
            YMaxResult = TryParseWithDefault(item.YMax, double.NaN) <= 650.0 ? "pass" : "fail",
            YMinResult = TryParseWithDefault(item.YMin, double.NaN) >= -89.0 ? "pass" : "fail",
            ZMaxResult = TryParseWithDefault(item.ZMax, double.NaN) <= 20.0 ? "pass" : "fail",
            ZMinResult = TryParseWithDefault(item.ZMin, double.NaN) >= -130.0 ? "pass" : "fail"

                          };

            foreach (var result in results)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("XMaxResult = {0}", result.XMaxResult);
                Console.WriteLine("XMinResult = {0}", result.XMinResult);
                Console.WriteLine("YMaxResult = {0}", result.YMaxResult);
                Console.WriteLine("YMinResult = {0}", result.YMinResult);
                Console.WriteLine("ZMaxResult = {0}", result.ZMaxResult);
                Console.WriteLine("ZMinResult = {0}", result.ZMinResult);
            } 
        }
    }

You could wait to accept a CR using:-

Console.ReadLine()
