Question

What is the output of the following code? 

using System;
class MainClass
{
   public static void Main(string[] args)
   {
       float f = 4.5;
       Console.WriteLine(f);

   }
}

float f = 4.5;//compile time error

Note

Without the F suffix, the following line would not compile, because 4.5 would be inferred to be of type double, which has no implicit conversion to float: 

float f = 4.5F;
