The following code provides an example of how to obtain the descriptive information of a table:

 try
 {
     var request = new DescribeTableRequest("SampleTable");
     var response = otsClient.DescribeTable(request);

     // Display the descriptive information of the specified table.
     Console.Writeline("Describe table succeeded.") ;
     Console.WriteLine("LastIncreaseTime: {0}", response.ReservedThroughputDetails.LastIncreaseTime);
     Console.WriteLine("LastDecreaseTime: {0}", response.ReservedThroughputDetails.LastDecreaseTime);
     Console.WriteLine("NumberOfDecreaseToday: {0}", response.ReservedThroughputDetails.LastIncreaseTime);
     Console.WriteLine("ReadCapacity: {0}", response.ReservedThroughputDetails.CapacityUnit.Read);
     Console.WriteLine("WriteCapacity: {0}", response.ReservedThroughputDetails.CapacityUnit.Write);
 }
 catch (Exception ex)
 {
     // If task execution fails, an exception is thrown and an error message is displayed.
     Console.WriteLine("Describe table failed, exception:{0}", ex.Message);
        }
