All C# expressions are preceded with the character “@“. For example:
<h1>@DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString()</h1>
If your C# code needs spaces, then it must be wrapped in parentheses:
<p>Last week this time: @(DateTime.Now - TimeSpan.FromDays(7))</p>
We can use code blocks:
@{ // C# code }
if our code exceeds one line or we want to declare variables.
@{ int num1 = 6; int num2 = 4; int result = num1 + num2; } <h3> The result of @num1 + @num2 is: @result</h3>
Result:
<h3> The result of 6 + 4 is: 10</h3>
Instructions
1.
Open a code block below @model IndexModel
so that we can start writing C# code in them.
2.
Within your code block, start by creating a string
variable named firstName
and assign it to your first name.
3.
Let’s now create an int
variable named age
and assign it your age.
4.
Now that we have a few assigned variables, let’s display their values on the page! Fill out our header describing your name and age.
