// C# Program to illustrate how
// to create a StringCollection
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
  
class Geeks {
  
    // Main Method
    public static void Main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // sc is the StringCollection object
        // StringCollection() is the constructor
        // used to initializes a new
        // instance of the StringCollection class
        StringCollection sc = new StringCollection();
  
        // Count property is used to get the
        // number of elements in StringCollection
        // It will give 0 as no elements
        // are present currently
        Console.WriteLine("Number of elements: "+
                                      sc.Count);
    }
