Study Notes
Data Types in C#
- Value Types: Store actual data values directly; includes integers, floating-point numbers, Boolean, and characters.
- sbyte: 8-bit signed integer, range -128 to 127, default value 0.
- short: 16-bit signed integer, range -32,768 to 32,767, default value 0.
- int: 32-bit signed integer, range -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647, default value 0.
- long: 64-bit signed integer, range -263 to 263-1, default value 0L.
- byte: 8-bit unsigned integer, range 0 to 255, default value 0.
- ushort: 16-bit unsigned integer, range 0 to 65,535, default value 0.
- uint: 32-bit unsigned integer, range 0 to 4,294,967,295, default value 0.
- ulong: 64-bit unsigned integer, range 0 to 264-1, default value 0.
- float: Single-precision 32-bit floating-point number, range 1.5E-45 to 3.4E+38, default value 0.0F.
- double: Double-precision 64-bit floating-point number, range 5E-324 to 1.7E+308, default value 0.0D.
- bool: 8-bit logical Boolean type, can be either true or false, default value is false.
- char: 16-bit Unicode character, range from '\u0000' to '\uffff', default value '\0'.
Reference Types
- Store the address of the value rather than the value itself.
- Include strings, objects, arrays, and delegates.
- Example for a reference type: variable
strNameholds the memory address where the value "Jess Diaz" is stored.
Type Conversion
- Type conversion: Process of converting a value from one data type to another.
- Implicit Conversion: Automatic conversion from a lower precision type to a higher precision type; e.g.,
shorttoint. - Examples of compatible implicit conversions include:
sbytetoshort,int,long,float, ordoublebytetoshort,ushort,int,uint,long,ulong,float, ordoublechartoushort,int,uint,long,ulong,float, ordouble
Conversion Examples
- Explicit conversion example:
int a = 64; char b = (char) a;results inbbeing@. - Make sure conversions retain types that are compatible.
Operators and Expressions
- Operators perform specific mathematical or logical operations within programming.
- Conditionals: Control flow statements that execute based on conditions.
- if-else-if statement: Executes conditions top to bottom; if a condition is true, subsequent conditions are skipped.
- switch statement: Allows execution of code blocks based on matching the value of a variable against predefined values.
- Ternary operator: Provides a shorthand for conditional statements, syntax:
condition ? consequence : alternative.
Looping Constructs
- Loops: Allow repeated execution of a block of statements until a condition evaluates to false.
- while loop: Executes statements while a specified condition is true; evaluates the condition before running the loop body.
