Objective
A "sitemap" is a file that webmasters can use to inform Google about the webpages that their website includes, with the aim of achieving better search engine rankings.
You must create a program that displays the contents of a preliminary "sitemap" on the screen. The sitemap should be generated from the list of ".html" files in the current folder, with a "weekly" frequency and the current date as the "last modification" date.
Write Your C# Exercise
C# Exercise Example
// Import the necessary namespaces for working with file and date operations
using System;
using System.IO;
class SitemapCreator
{
// Main method where the program execution starts
static void Main()
{
// Get the current date to use for "last modification" in the sitemap
string currentDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"); // Format date as yyyy-MM-dd
// Write the XML declaration and opening tag for the sitemap
Console.WriteLine("");
Console.WriteLine("");
// Get all the .html files in the current directory
string[] htmlFiles = Directory.GetFiles(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "*.html");
// Loop through each HTML file and generate a URL entry in the sitemap
foreach (var file in htmlFiles)
{
// Get the file name (without the full path) to be used in the tag
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(file);
// Write the entry for the sitemap with location, frequency, and last modification date
Console.WriteLine(" ");
Console.WriteLine($" {fileName}"); // File location
Console.WriteLine(" weekly"); // Frequency is weekly
Console.WriteLine($" {currentDate}"); // Last modification date
Console.WriteLine(" ");
}
// Write the closing tag for the sitemap
Console.WriteLine("");
}
