Not true at all. .NET is a wrapper for _some_ things, but certainly not for loops and basic arithmetic (as in the given example). C# is also not an interpreted language. It is compiled at run-time to the native machine code, and executed natively. There is a tiny delay during the JIT-compilation process, but once the code is executing, it's native just like C/C++ and other compiled languages.
