In C#: A Programmers Introduction, the world-renowned Deitel & Associates training organization offers new and experienced programmers an accessible and practical introduction to the fundamentals of Microsofts powerful C# programming language. Like all Deitel & Associates books, this one relies on the exceptional DEITEL LIVE-CODE (TM) approach, which teaches every key programming concept in the context of fully-tested programs, complete with syntax highlighting, detailed line-by-line descriptions and program outputs. It features 152 LIVE-CODE (TM) programs containing more than 11,500 lines of proven, color-coded, fully annotated C# program code. Along the way, students will encounter more than 350 practical programming tips for building applications that are portable, reusable, and optimized for performance. The authors begin with an introduction to the basics of the Visual Studio (R) .NET integrated development environment, then move on to basic C# features and techniques, including control structures, methods and arrays. They offer a detailed, exceptionally accessible treatment of object-based and object-oriented programming, followed by practical coverage of both exception handling and graphical user interface programming. The book concludes with introductions to the key technologies needed to build next-generation XML Web services-including ASP.NET, ADO.NET, and XML.

Publisher: Prentice Hall In C#: A Programmer's Introduction, a team of world-renowned corporate trainers has delivered the first complete introduction to C# specifically focused on what professional corporate developers need to know. Harvey and Paul Deitel, whose best-selling textbooks have trained millions of developers worldwide, teach C# using their unique Live-Code (TM)TM approach: every new concept is presented in the context of a complete, working example, immediately followed by windows showing exactly what the code does. The Deitels begin by introducing the new Microsoft Visual Studio .NET integrated development environment, and walking developers through the basic techniques of C# programming, including C# control structures, methods, arrays, exceptions, and object-oriented features such as inheritance and polymorphism. They introduce Windows GUI development with .NET's new Windows Forms; then introduce basic multimedia development and file processing. The book contains in-depth introductions to database access with ADO .NET, and to ASP .NET development of both conventional Web applications and Web services.
