Introduction • Fourth in a series of .NET Technical Talks sponsored by Microsoft and Drexel’s Math & Computer Science Society. • Summary of last talk: • C# has the safety of Java, ease of Visual Basic, and power of C++. Design goals were to increase productivity, provide unified and extensible type system, support component-oriented programming, etc. • As usual: • Please remember to fill out evaluations – you can’t win a door prize without a completed form • Please hold detailed questions till the end
Code demo Instead of telling you how great C# is, I am going to show you. I have prepared five demo applications that I feel show its flexibility and power.
Conclusions • Types of C# apps: • Console applications • Windows applications • Webservices • Extensive support for (among others) networking, threading, encryption, XML parsing… • Just because it’s advanced doesn’t mean it has to be difficult.
