csc is a compiler, it doesn;t run the program it translates your c# code into IL code in a file 'a.exe', now the .NET CLR (Common Language Runtime) can run it when you call a.exe from a command line.

C:\<directory where a.exe is\a.exe

You have created a "Console" program, that means you can only run it in a console window.
