Sharepoint 2013 Adduser and groups using REST API

Question

I've a requirement to create user in a SharePoint using the REST API and c#. How to achieve this?

Most of the article show using REST API in jquery and JavaScript but I've a requirement to do this using c#. And also I checked in MSDN for the same but they have given the JavaScript code where <host web url> is given where do I get the host web url. I'm using SharePoint 2013 which I'm accessing remotely. I don't have server side access so I need to do it through Rest API.

Please suggest some idea.

                SPFieldUserValueCollection usercollection = new SPFieldUserValueCollection();
                for (int i = 0; i < userarray.Length; i++)

The question was about using C# and the REST API. Your code gives an example of C# and server side code. — jcp
