Example of Computed Property in C#

The following program demonstrates an Example of Computed Property in C#.

Basically, the value of a computed property is computed each time its getter is called. Moreover, a computed property doesn’t map to a field in the class. The following program demonstrates a computed property called Area.

using System;
namespace ComputedPropertyExample
{
    class Circle
    {
        const double pi = 3.14;
        //Read-Write Property
        public double Radius { get; set; } = 5.778;
        public double Area
        {
            get
            {
                return pi * Radius * Radius;
            }
        }
    }
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Circle c = new Circle();
            Circle c1 = new Circle { Radius = 2.11 };

            //Display Computed Properties
            Console.WriteLine($"Area = {c.Area}");
            Console.WriteLine($"Area = {c1.Area}");
        }
    }
}
