Programming with C#.NET 2008

Duration:
5 Days

Overview:
This thorough and comprehensive course is a practical introduction to programming in C#, utilizing the services provided by .NET. This course introduces object-oriented concepts early, and C# is developed in a way that leverages its object orientation. Besides supporting traditional object-oriented features, such as classes, inheritance, and polymorphism, C# introduces several additional features, such as properties, indexers, delegates, events, and interfaces that make C# a compelling language for developing object-oriented and component-based systems. The course explores several important interactions between C# and the .NET Framework, and it includes an introduction to major classes for collections, delegates, and events. It is current to Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5, which introduces important new features, such as implicit typing, extension methods, lambda expressions, and Language-Integrated Query (LINQ). The course concludes with a chapter covering the new features in C# 3.0.

Audience:

Programmers who need to design and develop C# for the .NET framework

Prerequisites:

Programming in a high-level language such as Perl, C, Visual Basic, or COBOL
