Abstract
Microsoft’s .NET platform and the C# programming language were formally introduced circa 2002 and have quickly become a mainstay of modern-day software development. The .NET platform enables a large number of programming languages (including C#, VB.NET, and F#) to interact with each other. A program written in C# can be referenced by another program written in VB.NET. More on this interoperability later in this chapter.
