C# Unreachable Code Detected

Understand and fix the unreachable code detected compiler warning.
Unreachable code is never executed. The C# compiler issues an unreachable code detected warning. This warning can help you eliminate unused code. We look at unreachable code. We see how to eliminate this error but not remove the code.
Example. This program has some unreachable code. In the while-loop, the condition must be evaluated before the loop body is entered. In a while(false) loop, all the enclosed code is unreachable. The "int value = 1" statement is never reached.While

And: The compiler can figure this out before the program ever executes. It will generate an unreachable code detected warning.

C# program that shows unreachable code using System; class Program { static void Main() { while (false) { int value = 1; if (value == 2) { throw new Exception(); } } } } Warning: Warning CS0162: Unreachable code detected
Example 2. Sometimes, you may not want to delete the unreachable code for some reason. If you comment it out, it will no longer be compiled. This can result in a phenomenon called "bit rot" or bugs over time.

Tip: With pragma warning disable, you can keep the code compiling but eliminate the error as well.

Pragma Directive
C# program that uses pragma to disable warnings using System; class Program { static void Main() { #pragma warning disable while (false) { int value = 1; if (value == 2) { throw new Exception(); } } #pragma warning restore } }
Summary. Reachability in the C# language is carefully described in the specification. The reachability and unreachability of every statement is determined based on its end point. An end point is the location immediately after a statement.

And: If the end point of a statement is reachable, the statement itself is reachable.
