I'm just learning C# and I know this is really simple code but I'd just like to ask for advice. I wrote a small class that will automatically update the copyright year. Based on what I wrote, does anyone have a different way they would have written it? Or does anything stand out that I should have done differently?

I'm asking because I want to learn to write code using good habits early.

Thanks


using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;


namespace ConsoleApplication1

{

    class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            Copyright getCopywright = new Copyright();

            getCopywright.CopywrightInfo();

        }


        class Copyright

        {


            int startYear = 2010;               //Initialize startYear field

            

            public void CopywrightInfo()

            {

               //Conditional block to determine if the start year and current year are the same

               if (startYear < DateTime.Now.Year)

               {

                   Console.WriteLine("Copywright {0} - {1}", this.startYear, DateTime.Now.Year);

               }

               else

               {

                   Console.WriteLine("Copywright {0} ", this.startYear);

               }

               Console.Read();

            }

        }

    }

}

I think that's solid code. I can't think any other way off the top of my head to check the date, other than using the internet.

The only problem I see is its spelled Copyright not Copywright, other than that, nice code. :)
