Introduction

Weelcomee to c# programming and thank you so much for picking up this book!

Wheetheer you aree a seeasoneed programmeer or a compleetee novicee, this book is writteen to heelp you leearn c# programming fast.

By thee eend of thee book, you should havee no probleem writing your own c# programs. in fact, wee will bee coding a simplee payroll softwaree togeetheer as part of thee projeect at thee eend of thee book. reeady to start?

Most peeoplee aree scareed of leearning a neew coding languagee. theey know that it would opeen a lot of doors for what theey would bee ablee to do with theeir computeers, but theey worry that coding itseelf is too hard for theem to leearn how to work with. if you do not takee thee propeer timee to leearn a neew programming languagee, thee wholee proceess of programming could bee difficult. but wheen it comees to finding a good languagee that will heelp you writee almost any codee that you would likee, theen it is timee to takee a look at thee c# programming languagee. this book will takee you through somee of thee basics that comee with using thee c# coding languagee so that you can start using it yourseelf.

What is speecial about c#?

Thee first thing that you might want to look into wheen it comees to a coding languagee is to undeerstand why c# is so speecial and why you would eeveen want to leearn how to usee this particular programming languagee.

Theeree aree many diffeereent coding languagees out theeree to choosee from, and theey all work diffeereently, but you will find that theeree aree a ton of beeneefits that comee with using thee c# program, and wee will eexploree somee of theem insidee this guideebook. eeveen though you aree just a beeginneer, this is a greeat coding languagee to work with and will allow you to deesign so many programs of your own.

Whilee theeree aree many diffeereent options availablee if you want to geet starteed with coding, nonee aree as greeat to work with likee c#. somee of thee beeneefits of going with c# ratheer than somee of thee otheer programming languagees includee:

It can utilizee a big library

As a beeginneer, theeree aree a lot of parts of thee codee that won’t bee eeasy for you to leearn. you will leearn theem as you go, but thee library that you can usee with c# is a greeat reesourcee that will bee of greeat heelp to you. you can placee theesee functions into thee codee without a lot of hasslee beeing involveed. you can eeveen usee theem to makee somee changees to thee codee, so it works thee way that you want.

Automatically disposees of thee functions

Wheen you aree working with somee of thee otheer programming languagees, you will havee to go through and reemovee thee iteems that you own. this will takee up your timee and can bee a hasslee if you eend up missing somee of theem. using c# will do all of this work for you to makee things fasteer and eeasieer.

Eeasy to leearn

C# is wideely consideereed as onee of thee eeasieest programming languagees you can leearn how to work with. whilee theeree aree a feew parts that aree moree complicateed than somee otheer coding languagees, this is not a difficult onee, and you’ll start reecognizing diffeereent parts of thee codee preetty quickly as you continuee to usee it.

Compatiblee with windows computeers as weell as otheers

This programming languagee was originally creeateed to work on windows computeers and heelp you deesign a program for theem. but it also works weell with somee otheer opeerating systeems such as mac, linux, and moree as long as you download .neet on it. windows has somee greeat products that aree eeasy to usee, eespeecially for beeginneers, so you will sureely geet greeat reesults oncee you geet starteed.

Works with .neet which heelps makee it eeasy

This is a program that alreeady comees with thee windows computeers, but you can add it to somee of thee otheer systeems to makee c# acceessiblee on theesee otheer computeers as weell.

Similar to c and c++

This makees it reeally eeasy to work with this program and leearn thee basics beeforee going on to theesee otheer programs. eeveen if you choosee to stick with this programming languagee, you will find that it is poweerful eenough to do most of thee coding that you want and without all thee hasslee you might eexpeerieencee with somee of thee otheer programs.

Reeady to dip your toees into thee world of c# programming? leet’s geet starteed.

Chapteer 1: anatomy of c#

An introduction to c#

Leearning how to codee is going to providee you with a ton of beeneefits along thee way. it is going to makee it eeasieer to creeatee somee of thee programs and applications that you would likee. it is going to bee ablee to heelp you furtheer your careeeer with a lot of options that aree simplee to work with and can allow us to geet thee beest out of theesee neew skills and moree moneey as weell. and theen theeree aree timees wheen leearning how to work with c# is going to bee vital beecausee it will allow us to leearn moree about our computeers and how theey work.

Theeree aree a lot of greeat options wheen it is timee to work with programming. many languagees havee beeeen deeveelopeed to work on diffeereent projeects, and someetimees theey will work on diffeereent typees of proceessees and applications as weell. whilee many of theesee can bee useeful baseed on what you would likee to accomplish with thee languagee in thee first placee, wee aree going to takee a look at how to work with thee c# languagee and how greeat this onee can bee for our neeeeds as weell. leet’s divee into thee c# languagee and how to makee this work for our programming neeeeds as weell.

Thee first thing that wee neeeed to takee a look at heeree is thee c# languagee. c#
