Given the normal Console in C#, the task is to change the CursorLeft of the Console.
Approach: This can be done using the CursorLeft property in the Console class of the System package in C#. This changes the horizontal position of the Cursor. Basically, it gets or sets the column position of the cursor within the buffer area.
Program 1: Getting the value of CursorLeft
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace GFG {
class Program {
static void Main( string [] args)
{
Console.WriteLine( "Current CursorLeft position: {0}" ,
Console.CursorLeft);
Console.Write( "Current CursorLeft position: {0};" ,
Console.CursorLeft);
Console.WriteLine( " and now :{0}" ,
Console.CursorLeft);
}
}
}

Output:
Program 2: Setting the value of CursorLeft
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace GFG {
class Program {
static void Main( string [] args)
{
Console.WriteLine( "Current CursorLeft position: {0}" ,
Console.CursorLeft);
Console.CursorLeft = 25;
Console.Write( "Current CursorLeft position: {0};" ,
Console.CursorLeft);
}
}
}
