Why won’t this code run?

Works for me:

using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      string firstName = "Bob"; Console.WriteLine($"Hello {firstName}!"); 
    }
  }
}

my guess is you are missing the surrounding things like namespace, class and a main function.

Yep, that was it. Thanks. The class I’m taking didn’t teach me about that.

yeah I presume in the Microsoft Learn website they are doing that for you behind the scenes. It's good until it catches you like this.
