i would like to know if you can program microcontrollers with c#? I would like to program microcontrollers and the reason i am learning c# is because i read somewhere that you can.but i"ve been looking for code examples for programing microcontrollers and i cannot find any. can someone help me with this question?

Certainly. There's a generic .NET namespace as well as APIs for different boards.

Yes you can. I believe there are some libraries for devices such as Arduino.

Well, I'd say Netduino is a good option.

Wait, you say you're learning C# because you heard you could use it for microcontroller programming? Most people do that the other way around. They already know C#, so they'd like to leverage that in a microcontroller project.

C# and .NET isn't "primetime" for microcontroller programming. That's not it's primary purpose. If you're going to start from a blank slate anyway, learn C or C++; it will be more broadly useful in the long run.
