Beginning C# 2008:
From Novice to Professional
Dear Reader,
This book is about showing you how to write good code in C# 2008, even if you
have never programmed before. Writing good code can be a challenge—there
are so many options, especially in C# 2008. So if you want to really get the most
from a programming language, you need to know which features work best
in which situations and understand their strengths and weaknesses. It is this
understanding that makes the difference between coding and coding well.
With this in mind, I have written Beginning C# 2008 to teach you how to use
the C# programming language to solve problems. From the earliest chapters,
and from the first introductory concepts that you’ll discover about C#, you will
be looking at real programming challenges and learning how C# can be used to
solve them. As you progress with me through the book, these problems become
increasingly more involved and interesting, as I show you how C# features can
interact to achieve the programming results you want.
By the time you’ve finished reading Beginning C# 2008 and worked through
the sample exercises, you’ll be a confident and very competent C# programmer.
You will still have many new explorations of the huge .NET Framework API to
look forward to in your programming, but you will have a firm foundation for
your future career in C#, and you will know exactly where to find all the infor-
mation you need to progress confidently with your C# projects.
