separate output text lines with blank lines in the console (without writing console.writeline() 3 times) - how?

Question

_{Monday, October 17, 2016 11:43 PM}

I have done this before but I cannot for the life of me remember how. I want to do a console.WriteLine as follows:

--output:

sdkjasd;k asdkja;sdklj;asdklfj;klasdf

as;lkjas;dljk;sd;ksdlj;asd

asdlkjasd;jkas;dklj;kjsds

these output lines are separated by 3 blanks lines apiece. I don't want to write Console.WriteLine() 3 times per output line. I think I did something like Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine...pseudocode(3)) something like that. How can I add the 3 blank lines in one Console.WriteLine(...) ? Is it a format function? I just can't remember.

Hi Rich P123,

Thank you for posting here.

For your question, you could use console.writeline() for one time with "\n". The use of Environment.NewLine Property could get the same output.

Please try the following code. 

            Console.WriteLine("sdkjasd;k asdkja;sdklj;asdklfj;klasdf" + "\n" + "as;lkjas;dljk;sd;ksdlj;asd" + "\n" + "asdlkjasd;jkas;dklj;kjsds");
            Console.WriteLine("sdkjasd;k asdkja;sdklj;asdklfj;klasdf{0}as;lkjas;dljk;sd;ksdlj;asd{0}asdlkjasd;jkas;dklj;kjsds", Environment.NewLine);

Here is the output.

I hope this would be helpful to you.

If you have something else, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your reply - it's not exactly what I was looking for, but I suppose I could do this:

Console.WriteLine("\n\n\n");

I thought there was some function, but the "\n" thing will suffice.

Greetings Rich.

I think you are looking for something like so...

Console.WriteLine("{0}{0}{0}", Environment.NewLine);
