namespace messagbox {
  static class Program {
    static void Main() {
      Application.EnableVisualStyles();
      DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show("Are you happy now?", "Mood Test", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
      switch (dr) {
        case DialogResult.Yes:
          MessageBox.Show("Ok, Bye");
          break;
        case DialogResult.No:
          Application.Restart();
          break;
      }
