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# - Variables

A variable is nothing but a name given to a storage area that our programs can manipulate. Each variable in C# has a specific type, which determines the size and layout of the variable's memory the range of values that can be stored within that memory and the set of operations that can be applied to the variable. The basic value types provided in C# can be categorized as: Type Example Integral types sbyte, byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong, and char Floating point types float and double Decimal types decimal Boolean types true or false values, as assigned Nullable types Nullable data types C# also allows defining other value types of variable such as  enum  and reference types of variables such as  class , which we will cover in subsequent chapters. Defining Variables Syntax for variable definition in C# is: <data_type> <variable_list> ; Here, data_type must be a valid C# data type including char, int, float, double, or any user-...

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.  ...
