How do I use lists in C#?

In C#, you can use the List<T> class from the System.Collections.Generic namespace to create a list. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example of creating and using a list.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        List<string> fruits = new List<string>();
        fruits.Add("Apple");
        fruits.Add("Banana");
        fruits.Add("Cherry");

        foreach (var fruit in fruits)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(fruit);
        }
    }
}

This code creates a list of fruits and prints each fruit to the console.

What methods can I use with lists?

You can use methods like Add(), Remove(), Count, Sort(), and Contains(). Each method serves different purposes for managing the list.

Can I store different data types in a list?

No, a List<T> can only store elements of the same type. However, you can use List<object> to store different types, but you'll need to cast them when retrieving.
