Rotate in C#

I have been looking for a way to use the rhino Rotate3D command inside of a C# box. I want to use a while loop to run a command a certain number of times based upon an input. Is there any way to do this?

Here is some sample code that shows rotate 3D as done by visual basic.net the difference from c# is small and you can even find a syntax converter if you want:

Dim rotate_xf As New OnXform

' these are defined from inputs into the component with code hints to tell what type they are, you may not need to define them again with new names as I have done here

Dim pointOrigin As On3dPoint = AxisPt
Dim vaxis As On3dVector = poleVec
Dim ptB1 As On3dPoint = point1

'rotate ptB1 180 through axis - use whatever angle you want in the first parameter

rotate_xf.rotation((Math.PI / 180) * 180, vaxis, pointOrigin)
ptB1.Transform(rotate_xf)

Hope this gets you started and Good Luck!
