Abstract

One of those languages is C#—a very robust and powerful object-oriented language that you can use to write managed Windows .NET and UWP applications. Mastering C# is not a trivial task, but it is not quite as challenging as other programming languages. This chapter presents a crash course on the basics of C# programming in Visual Studio, including an explanation about some of the most commonly used language features.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Not “see-hash” or worse, “see-hashtag”—both of which may show ignorance, so don’t do that.

  2. 2.

    As opposed to other languages like C++ with differing notation based on how an object is instantiated.

  3. 3.

    A function returns a value, whereas a method does not.

  4. 4.

    If you ever hear someone claim, “My code is self-documenting,” be cautious when using his or her code. There is no such thing. Sure, plenty of good programmers can write code that is easy to understand (read), but all fall short of that lofty claim.

  5. 5.
