How to display this using MessageBox.Show method

Can anyone help me to display the output in MessageBox for the
following program result?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

using System;
using System.Collecti ons.Generic;
using System.Text;

namespace A2_CISP40506F
{
class A2
{

static void Main(string[] args)
{
double p = 1000;
double r = .05, interest = 0;
double a = 0;
Console.WriteLi ne("Year\tAmoun t On Deposit\tIntere st");
for (int year = 1; year <= 100; year++)
{
interest += a * r;
a = p + a * (1 + r);
Console.WriteLi ne("{0}\t{1:C}\ t\t{2:C}", year, a,
interest);

}
}
} // class A2
}

I think what you want is:

MessageBox.Show (String.Format( "{0}\t{1:C}\t\t {2:C}", year, a, interest));

In general, String.Format does the same kind of formatting as WriteLine, but
the result is returned as a string (which you can then output any way you
want) rather than being written on the console.

Yes, I couldn't use MessageBox.show because I cteated the project as
console. I fixed that.

And, I do not want the title of messagebox repeated. So I concatenated
the string and then call MessageBox.Show outside the for loop.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
