C# - Overview

C# is a modern, general-purpose, object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft and approved by European Computer Manufacturers Association (ECMA) and International Standards Organization (ISO).
C# was developed by Anders Hejlsberg and his team during the development of .Net Framework. More Info: C Sharp (programming language)
C# is designed for Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), which consists of the executable code and runtime environment that allows use of various high-level languages on different computer platforms and architectures. More - L298
The following reasons make C# a widely used professional language:
  • It is a modern, general-purpose programming language
  • It is object oriented.
  • It is component oriented.
  • It is easy to learn.
  • It is a structured language.
  • It produces efficient programs.
  • It can be compiled on a variety of computer platforms.
  • It is a part of .Net Framework.

Strong Programming Features of C#

Although C# constructs closely follow traditional high-level languages, C and C++ and being an object-oriented programming language. It has strong resemblance with Java, it has numerous strong programming features that make it endearing to a number of programmers worldwide.
Following is the list of few important features of C#:
  • Boolean Conditions
  • Automatic Garbage Collection
  • Standard Library
  • Assembly Versioning
  • Properties and Events
  • Delegates and Events Management
  • Easy-to-use Generics
  • Indexers
  • Conditional Compilation
  • Simple Multithreading
  • LINQ and Lambda Expressions
  • Integration with Windows

C# Nullables

C# provides a special data types, the  nullable  types, to which you can assign normal range of values as well as null values.  C# Methods For example, you can store any value from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 or null in a Nullable<Int32> variable. Similarly, you can assign true, false, or null in a Nullable<bool> variable. Syntax for declaring a  nullable  type is as follows: < data_type> ? <variable_name> = null; The following example demonstrates use of nullable data types: using System ; namespace CalculatorApplication { class NullablesAtShow { static void Main ( string [] args ) { int ? num1 = null ; int ? num2 = 45 ; double ? num3 = new double ?(); double ? num4 = 3.14157 ; bool ? boolval = new bool ?(); // display the values Console . WriteLine ( "Nullables at Show: {0}, {1}, {2}, {3}" , ...

C# - Constants and Literals

The constants refer to fixed values that the program may not alter during its execution. These fixed values are also called literals. Constants can be of any of the basic data types like an integer constant, a floating constant, a character constant, or a string literal. There are also enumeration constants as well. The constants are treated just like regular variables except that their values cannot be modified after their definition.  More Info:  C Sharp (programming language) Integer Literals An integer literal can be a decimal, or hexadecimal constant. A prefix specifies the base or radix: 0x or 0X for hexadecimal, and there is no prefix id for decimal. An integer literal can also have a suffix that is a combination of U and L, for unsigned and long, respectively. The suffix can be uppercase or lowercase and can be in any order. Here are some examples of integer literals: 212 /* Legal */ 215u /* Legal */ 0xFeeL /* Legal */ Following a...

C# Methods

A strategy is a gathering of articulations that together play out an errand. Each C# program has no less than one class with a strategy named Main.  To utilize a strategy, you have to:  Characterize the strategy  Call the strategy Methods Defining Methods in C# When you characterize a strategy, you essentially proclaim the components of its structure. The linguistic structure for characterizing a strategy in C# is as per the following: <Access Specifier > <Return Type > <Method Name > (Parameter List) { Method Body } Following are the different components of a technique:  Access Specifier : This decides the perceivability of a variable or a technique from another class.  Return type : A technique may restore an esteem. The arrival sort is the information kind of the esteem the technique returns. On the off chance that the strategy is not restoring any esteems, at that point the arrival sort is void.  ...
