Completely updated for C# 6.0, the new edition of this bestseller offers
more than 150 code recipes to common and not-so-common problems
that C# programmers face every day. Each recipe includes tested code
that you can download and reuse in your own applications, and contains a
detailed discussion of how and why the underlying technology works.
You’ll nd new recipes that take advantage of recent C# innovations, such as
expression-level, member-declaration, and statement-level features. New and
existing recipes also include examples of dynamic and asynchronous
programming to help you understand how to use those language features. If you
prefer solutions to general C# language instruction and quick answers to theory,
this is your book.
Here are some of the topics covered:
■ Classes and generics
■ Collections, enumerators, and iterators
■ Data types
■ LINQ and lambda expressions
■ Exception handling
■ Reection and dynamic programming
■ Regular expressions
■ Filesystem interactions
■ Networking and the Web
■ XML usage
■ Threading, synchronization, and concurrency
