Course Description

Mastering C#: A Comprehensive Dive into Modern Programming

Step into the dynamic universe of C# – the beating heart of Microsoft's web and desktop applications. If you've ever sought a language that seamlessly merges power and adaptability, C# stands tall. Not just an isolated entity, C# is deeply rooted in the C-style family, paving the way for a smooth transition to languages like Java, C, and C++. But where do you begin? Right here, with our meticulously crafted course tailored for both novices and those looking to sharpen their skills.

Imagine being handed the keys to a powerful sports car. It's thrilling, but you need to understand its mechanics to truly harness its power. Similarly, diving into C# requires a grasp of its fundamental elements. We unravel this enigma by commencing with the bedrock of programming: variables, operators, and primitive strings. While these pillars are universal across coding languages, we delve deep into the unique idiosyncrasies that C# presents.

But as you progress, mere linear coding won't suffice. Your code, much like a riveting story, needs twists and turns. Enter operators and Boolean logic – the masterminds controlling your code's narrative. Grasping these crucial elements can be the difference between a seamless user experience and a frustrating one. And we ensure you master them, preventing those pesky pitfalls that plague many developers.

But the C# realm isn't just about basics. Our course catapults you into the fascinating world of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). A universal concept, yet with a distinctive C# flavor. Delve into methods, the beating heart of OOP, and explore the richness of inheritance, polymorphism, interfaces, and abstraction. To ensure your C# journey is smooth, we also equip you with skills to test, debug, handle errors, and maneuver through C#'s vast libraries and namespaces.

With us, you're not just learning; you're evolving into a C# maestro. By the end, you won't just understand C#; you'll think in it, crafting intricate programs from a blank slate. So, are you ready to unlock unparalleled programming prowess? Dive in and master the art and science of C#.

 
 

Course Lessons

  • Lesson 1: What is the C# Programming Language?

    C# is a Windows programmer go-to language. It’s the preferred language for any desktop or web application that runs on a Windows computer.
  • Lesson 2: C# Language Structure and C# Variables

    The C# language is made up of variables and data types. Variables hold your values. You can either store that value in a database or display it to the user.
  • Lesson 3: C# Operators

    C# operators are the components that perform actions on those variables. An action can be an assignment, a comparison, or a mathematical calculation.
  • Lesson 4: C# Strings

    This lesson covers strings and the .NET framework libraries that are used to work with them.
  • Lesson 5: User Input

    User input is any click command, text from a keyboard, or entry in a form. In almost any program, you need to handle user input.
  • Lesson 6: Boolean Logic

    Boolean variables can be only two values: true or false.
  • Lesson 7: Loops and Arrays

    Loops and arrays are a more complex concept, but you can master them with practice.
  • Lesson 8: C# Methods

    Methods are actually functions, but they are a part of classes.
  • Lesson 9: Classes, Objects, Inheritance and Polymorphism

    We’ll first review classes and OOP and then explain concepts of inheritance and polymorphism. They are both more complex concepts but important parts of C# and any OOP program.
  • Lesson 10: Interfaces and Abstract Classes in C#

    An abstract class takes inheritance a step further and allows child classes to inherit from the parent class but blocks other classes from instantiating it.
  • Lesson 11: Debugging and Enumerators

    For programmers who have coded in any other language, enums are not a new concept. An enum is a list of integer values represented by friendly names.
  • Lesson 12: Handling Events

    The purpose of this lesson is to learn: About event handling How to declare your own events and handlers Manage multiple controls Remove un-needed controls Locating Mouse on form and key presses TabStop and TabIndex
  • Lesson 13: Exception and File Handling

    You can’t predict every user income and what they will do with your program. For instance, you could ask a user for a number value and a character is entered. If you try to work with the character after expecting a number, errors occur in your program.
  • Lesson 14: Threading

    Threads are component of processes. Each process can have multiple threads. When a process contains multiple threads, it’s said to be multithreaded.
  • Lesson 15: Putting it All Together - Demonstration Program

    In this final lesson, we'll demonstrate creating a sample C# program using all the techniques we've learned in this course.
