Answer 1

I've been wondering quite a lot, but I just figured it out!

    int number;
    bool check;
    do
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Enter an integer:");
        check = int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out num1);
    }
    while (!check);

This code will loop until the user has entered an integer number. This way, the program doesn't simply report an error, but instead immediately allows the user to input again another, correct value.
