Windows Form button call button

how do I get each click on the button to create a new button and put in the panel?.

I do not know what method to use to create array of button.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        Button c = new Button();
        c.Location = new Point(15,40);
        c.Text = "novo";
        panel1.Controls.Add(c);


    }

You do create new button and add it to panel, just you create them all in SAME place.

c.Location = new Point(15,40);

You probably need some counter on class level for X or Y coordinate or for both.

public class Form1 : FOrm {

private int x = 15;

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        Button c = new Button();
        c.Location = new Point(x,40);
        c.Text = "novo";
        panel1.Controls.Add(c);

        x += 10 + c.Size.Width;
    }
}

You might want to check whether you are out of boundaries of form and to start at the beginning of "new row".

you can create list of buttons like below 

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    List<Button> ButtonList = new List<Button>();

then you can create buttons as you did 

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Button c = new Button();
        c.Location = new Point(10 , 40);
        c.Text = "novo";
        ButtonList.Add(c); // add to list as well 
        panel1.Controls.Add(c);       
    }

Note that you may want to change the location for each button otherwise all buttons are overlap and you only see one button which is on the top
