Is the ToBase64Transform code sample wrong?

Question

There's a code sample here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.security.cryptography.tobase64transform

I tried to copy-paste it and it didn't work, I tried to learn more, and the more I learn, the more mistakes I find there, or maybe I don't fully understand C#.

Try it yourself and tell me who's wrong here, it's hard to learn when you don't trust the learning material, thank you.

Answer 1

Based on the provided context, there is no code sample for ToBase64Transform in the System.Security.Cryptography namespace. The System.Convert class provides methods for base64 encoding and decoding, as well as other common conversions. It is possible that the code sample you found is outdated or incorrect. It is recommended to refer to the official Microsoft documentation for accurate and up-to-date information on the ToBase64Transform class or any other .NET classes.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
