MonoDevelop/C#: get the current running Common Language Runtime verion, with the Environment.Version property.

Read the Environment.Version Property to gets a Version object that describes the major, minor, build, and revision numbers of the common language runtime.

For the .NET Framework Versions 4, 4.5, 4.5.1, and 4.5.2, the Environment.Version property returns a Version object whose string representation has the form 4.0.30319.xxxxx. For the .NET Framework 4.6, it has the form 4.0.30319.42000.

Example:

using System;

namespace HelloWorldCsharp
{
    class MainClass
    {
        public static void Main (string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine ("Hello World!");

            /*
             * For the .NET Framework Versions 4, 4.5, 4.5.1, and 4.5.2, 
             * the Environment.Version property returns a Version object whose 
             * string representation has the form 4.0.30319.xxxxx. 
             * 
             * For the .NET Framework 4.6, it has the form 4.0.30319.42000.
             * 
             * ref: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.environment.version(v=vs.110).aspx
            */
            Console.WriteLine("Version: \t" + Environment.Version.ToString());
            Console.WriteLine("(Major): \t" + Environment.Version.Major.ToString());
            Console.WriteLine("(Minor): \t" + Environment.Version.Minor.ToString());

            Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit.");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

MonoDevelop/C# to keep console open with ReadKey()

In C# console program, we can keep console open by inserting the code Console.ReadKey():

using System;

namespace HelloWorldCsharp
{
    class MainClass
    {
        public static void Main (string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine ("Hello World!");
            Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit.");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

MonoDevelop on Kubuntu: Hello World C# example

using System;

namespace HelloWorldCsharp
{
    class MainClass
    {
        public static void Main (string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine ("Hello World!");
        }
    }
}

Create a Hello World C# example in MonoDevelop run on Kubuntu:

Install MonoDevelop on Kubuntu 15.10 with Muon Discover Software Center

MonoDevelop enables developers to quickly write desktop and web applications on Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. It also makes it easy for developers to port .NET applications created with Visual Studio to Linux and Mac OS X maintaining a single code base for all platforms.

It can be installed on Kubuntu with Muon Discover Software Center. But the current installed version is 5.5, not the current latest version of 5.9.7.
