How can I use threading and tasks in C#?

In C#, you can use the Thread class for low-level threading or the Task class for higher-level task-based asynchronous programming. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example of using tasks.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

class Program
{
    static async Task Main(string[] args)
    {
        await Task.Run(() => DoWork());
    }

    static void DoWork()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Working...");
    }
}

This code runs DoWork asynchronously. Do you have any specific scenarios in mind?

What are the benefits of using tasks over threads?

Tasks provide a higher level of abstraction, making it easier to manage asynchronous operations, handle exceptions, and compose multiple tasks together. They also integrate well with async/await patterns.
