Study Notes
Introduction to C#
- C# (C Sharp) is an object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft in 2000.
- It is part of the .NET framework, enabling easy integration with applications written in other .NET languages.
- C# can be used to create various applications, including web, desktop, and console applications.
- The language was designed to incorporate popular features from Java and C++.
- The first version was released with .NET Framework 1.0 in 2002.
.NET Framework
- The .NET Framework is a software development platform for creating applications that run on Windows.
- It supports various programming languages, including Visual Basic and C#.
- It offers two main application types: Form-based applications and Web-based applications.
- Supports development of web services.
Key Components of .NET Framework
- Common Language Runtime (CLR): The execution engine responsible for managing the lifecycle of executables and executing .NET code (managed code).
- Class Library: A collection of standard methods and functions grouped by namespaces like System.* and Microsoft.*.
-
Application Types:
- WinForms: For developing desktop applications.
- ASP.NET: For web applications running in a browser.
- ADO.NET: For database interaction applications (e.g., Oracle, SQL Server).
.NET Design Principles
- Interoperability: Backward support for older frameworks.
- Portability: Applications can operate on any Windows platform.
- Security: Robust security mechanisms included.
- Memory Management: Managed by the CLR, simplifying development.
C# Applications
- Full Stack Web Development using ASP.NET.
- Real-time communication development with SignalR.
- Mobile application development using Xamarin.
- Desktop applications with WPF and UWP.
- Game development through Unity and CryEngine.
- AI and machine learning using Azure services.
- IoT applications developed with UWP.
C# Programming Basics
- A variety of applications can be built in C#, including window-based and console applications.
-
Comments in C#:
- Single line:
//
- Block comments:
/* comment */
- XML comments for documentation:
///
- Single line:
C# Data Types
- C# is a strongly typed language requiring explicit declaration of variable types.
- Data types are categorized into:
- Value Types: Includes simple types (int, float, bool, char), enum types, struct types, and nullable types.
- Reference Types: Class types, interface types, delegate types, and arrays.
- Certain numeric types have specific suffixes (e.g.,
u
for unsigned integers,f
for float).
C# Operators
- Supports various operators, including:
- Arithmetic Operators: For mathematical operations.
- Relational Operators: For comparison operations.
- Logical Operators: For logical operations.
C# Keywords
- Keywords are reserved words in C# with specific meanings in the compiler.
- Types of keywords include:
- Modifier Keywords: Control modification permissions for types and members.
- Access Modifiers: Define accessibility of classes and their members.
- Statement Keywords: Influence program flow.
- Type Keywords: Define data types.
-
Contextual Keywords: Context-specific keywords, not reserved but can be used as identifiers if prefixed (e.g.,
@class
). - Query Keywords: Specifically used in LINQ queries.
Additional Notes
- Contextual keywords do not appear in the standard syntax color in IDEs unless reserved.
- Implicit type conversion applies to specific situations where values are automatically converted to different data types.
