You can use Console WriteLine   to write out any native type  To see the output you must write console application  like in Java   then the output will be displayed in the Command Prompt  or if you are developing a windows GUI application  in Visual Studio you must turn on  Output  panel  under View  to see the commands output

Try   Console WriteLine  type out for a Visual Studio snippet   Console WriteLine stuff     Another way is to use System Diagnostics Debug WriteLine   System Diagnostics Debug WriteLine stuff     Debug WriteLine may suit better for Output window in IDE because it will be rendered for both Console and Windows applications  Whereas Console WriteLine won t be rendered in Output window but only in the Console itself in case of Console Application type   Another difference is that Debug WriteLine will not print anything in Release configuration
