In Visual studio create console application, we have to use Console class which is available with System namespace. System is the root namespace of console application.
Before, create console application we need to get basic ideas about Console.ReadLine(), Console.Write() and Console.WriteLine() Methods.
C# Importance Point
Console.ReadLine() – This method is used to read a string text from console windows. This will read input text from user at console windows and displays string at console windows when user press the enter key.
Console.Write() – write the text at console windows in same line.
Console.WriteLine() – Write the text at console windows and add a new line character at the end of the line.

In above visual studio home screen select file –> New Project option.
Select Console Application from dialog box and select Visual C# language and Give your first application name shows like below screen.
After creating console application below is the first screen of console application.
Here, we have created one example for sum of two integer digit in console application. In this example we will input two integer values and get sum of that inputted values as output.
The c# code of sum example.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
namespace MyFirstConsoleApp
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int a, b, sum;
Console.WriteLine("Enter Value of a and b");
a = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
b = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
//OR
//a = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
//b = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
sum = a + b;
Console.WriteLine("The sum of {0} and {1} = {2}", a, b, sum);
Console.Read();
}
}
}
