How can I manage resources effectively in C#?

In C#, effective resource management can be achieved using the using statement, which ensures that resources are disposed of properly.

Can you give me an example of using the using statement?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

using (var stream = new FileStream("file.txt", FileMode.Open))
{
    // Work with the stream
}
``` This automatically closes the stream when done.

What about managing database connections?

For database connections, you can also use the using statement to ensure connections are closed properly after use.

Are there any best practices for resource management in C#?

Yes, always dispose of unmanaged resources, use using statements, and consider implementing the IDisposable interface for custom classes.
