Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP, also known as "classic" ASP) is a server-side scripting language and dynamic web page engine. It was developed by Microsoft from 1996 to 2000 and now superseded by ASP.NET.

C# is a high-level, statically typed, object-oriented programming language developed for the .NET platform.

It features strong type safety, automatic memory management via garbage collection, async and parallel programming support, LINQ for data querying, rich standard libraries, and is widely used for building desktop, web, and enterprise applications.
