and if i make the main function a static i get

HowNiceOfYou•2y ago

Make everything else static then. Easy solution.

using System.Collections.Specialized;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
class Player
{
    public string _playerName;
    public int playerID;
    public Player(string playerName, int playerIdentifier)
    {
        _playerName = playerName;
        playerID = playerIdentifier;
    }
}
class Program
{
    static List<Player> Players = new List<Player>();
    static void banPlayer(string _playerBan)
    {
        foreach (Player _player in Players)
        {
            if (_player._playerName == _playerBan)
            {
                Players.Remove(_player);
                Console.WriteLine("ID: " + _player.playerID + " has been removed");
            }
        }
    }
    static void Main()
    {
        string[] input;
        while (Players.Count < 5)
        {
            input = Console.ReadLine().Split(' ');
            Player player = new Player(input[0], Int32.Parse(input[1]));
            Players.Add(player);
        }
        banPlayer(Console.ReadLine());
    }
}

using System.Collections.Specialized;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
class Player
{
    public string _playerName;
    public int playerID;
    public Player(string playerName, int playerIdentifier)
    {
        _playerName = playerName;
        playerID = playerIdentifier;
    }
}
class Program
{
    static List<Player> Players = new List<Player>();
    static void banPlayer(string _playerBan)
    {
        foreach (Player _player in Players)
        {
            if (_player._playerName == _playerBan)
            {
                Players.Remove(_player);
                Console.WriteLine("ID: " + _player.playerID + " has been removed");
            }
        }
    }
    static void Main()
    {
        string[] input;
        while (Players.Count < 5)
        {
            input = Console.ReadLine().Split(' ');
            Player player = new Player(input[0], Int32.Parse(input[1]));
            Players.Add(player);
        }
        banPlayer(Console.ReadLine());
    }
}

Or use that code. It'll work.

what you modified?

HowNiceOfYou•2y ago

Have a look, compare it.

TonyOP•2y ago

oh u made the function and the list static i don't understand how it works but thanks man

Cracker•2y ago

Since main function is the entry point of the application, it has to be static. Therefore the other defined methods you want to call has to be static as well. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4124102/whats-a-static-method-in-c

Alternatively, $nonstaticmain

MODiX•2y ago

class Program
{
    // that's all there is in this class
    static void Main(string[] args) => new App().Run(args);
}

class Program
{
    // that's all there is in this class
    static void Main(string[] args) => new App().Run(args);
}

class App
{
    public void Run(string[] args)
    {
        // code that would go into main, goes here
    }
}

class App
{
    public void Run(string[] args)
    {
        // code that would go into main, goes here
    }
}
