Automatically pause the console application in c#

Question

I know I can use Console.ReadKey(); or Console.ReadLine(); to wait for the user input.

I am following some video tutorials from youTube

There I notice that when the tutor writes some code like

Console.WriteLine("This is a basic C# tutorial");

He gets a message saying Press any key to continue...

So, I want to know how to get the above message without writing any code for displaying the message.

It's probably a WriteLine of "press any key" followed by a ReadKey... — Pierre-Luc Pineault

Run without debugging sounds like what you want. Ctrl + F5.

Keep in mind that this is only used when you are debugging it and wont be in what ever your final result that the user would see.
