    try {

      Console.WriteLine("This is the start of the log file.");

      for(int i=0; i<10; i++) Console.WriteLine(i);

      Console.WriteLine("This is the end of the log file.");

    } catch(IOException exc) {

        Console.WriteLine("Error Writing Log File");

        Console.WriteLine(exc.Message);

    }

    log_out.Close();

logfile.txt

 will contain the following:
