You can write the code using Visual Studio IDE or a simple notepad too..Whatever you are comfortable with...The only other thing required is a C# compiler and .NET framework installed on the machine.

It needs just one trick to use -- please see my answer.

This is not a valid question, because we cannot know hot can you write it. For example, I know how I can do it, but I would not even try to waste my time on this pointless exercise. Perhaps some will volunteer to help you more if you explain the purpose. And anyway, it cannot be perfect circle, because the aspect ratio will always depend on console setting, such as fonts and size.

Solution 1

Use System.Console.SetCursorPosition to move your cursor over already written text, to overwrite it and change the position of your character:
