Access Static Members of a Class

suggest change

Allows you to import a specific type and use the type’s static members without qualifying them with the type name. This shows an example using static methods:

using static System.Console;

// ...

string GetName()
{
    WriteLine("Enter your name.");
    return ReadLine();
}

And this shows an example using static properties and methods:

using static System.Math;

namespace Geometry
{
    public class Circle
    {
        public double Radius { get; set; };

        public double Area => PI * Pow(Radius, 2);
    }
}

Found a mistake? Have a question or improvement idea? Let me know.
