I didn’t have any experience with C# before. My favourite ones are Python, C, R, Java and so on. I used MacOS and Ubuntu instead of Windows. So this time, when I got a chance to play with them I thought this would be a wonderful opportunity to equip myself.

C# is a lot similar to Java so it is not that difficult to starting coding with this language. Building a C# project on Windows machine is much more convenient than do it on Linux machines.

Windows cmd line is a little different from the Linux style. dir is ls. cd is the same one as in Linux. And \ is used rather than /. The whole project in in bigProject and inside this directory, there is another directory codes and a file codes.sln. To open the project in Visual Studio, just open this file in VS and the project is imported. Using this IDE is simple.

One more thing is that when I first compiled the project, I turned on Debug and running time was really big. Then as suggested by the Professor, I used Release instead of Debug so that the execution time is a lot faster while the results are the same.
