Have you ever wondered how to write A to Z using C# without hard coding them?

Here is the code snippet for that.

for (char c = 'A'; c < 'Z'; c++)
        {
            Response.Write(c + "<br />");
        }

Output
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
I
J
K
L
M
N
O
P
Q
R
S
T
U
V
W
X
Y

If you need to to write lower case just change "A" to "a" and "Z" to "z" and it will list lower case alphabets

This is strange to see how incrementing var c is giving the next alphabet ? Should this be giving some other result ? How this is working ?

Also try this

Enumerable

                .Range('A', 'Z' - 'A' + 1)

                .ToList()                

                .ForEach(i => Console.WriteLine((Char)i));

Another Way

Enumerable

                .Range(0, 26)

                .ToList()

                .ForEach(i => Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToChar(i + 65 + 0)));

For generating Small letters write i + 65 + 32

Another way

"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"

                .ToCharArray()

                .ToList()

                .ForEach(i => Console.WriteLine(i));
