C# is an object-oriented programming language that is used to write .NET software applications. It is based on C and C++ syntax but incorporates automatic memory management, type safety, an extensive class library, and supports both GUI and web applications. The document provides an overview of C# concepts like data types, conditional statements, loops, error handling and using external libraries. It also demonstrates how to create different types of C# applications like console programs, GUI programs and code libraries.

Learning C#

What is C#

 A new object oriented language


 Syntax based on C
 Similar to C++ and Java
 Used to write .NET software
 Software that targets the .NET Framework is called managed
code
 C# gains much from the .NET Framework
 Internet oriented platform
 JIT compilation
 Automatic memory management
 Security, type-safety
 Framework Class Library
C#: Rich Software Development
 Provides access to the .NET Framework
 Greatlanguage for targeting .NET
 Access the features of the framework
 For example, the FCL
 Create Web-based apps, GUI, apps, etc.
 Offers access to the underlying OS
 Full
access to Windows (or host OS)
 Enables creation of rich applications

 Object oriented
 Create component based applications
 Gain the benefits of OO design, with no compromises
Defining the .NET Framework

 The .NET Framework is


A software development environment
 A runtime engine for Managed Code
 A platform designed for Internet-Distributed
software
 The .NET Framework is an exciting new
computing platform
Hello World a-la C#
HelloGUI.cs
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Drawing;

class MyForm:Form{
public static void Main(){
Application.Run(new MyForm());
}

protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e){


e.Graphics.DrawString("Hello World!",
new Font("Arial", 35), Brushes.Blue, 10, 100);
}
}

c:\> csc /target:winexe HelloGui.cs


Types of Applications
 Managed code is packaged as Assemblies
 The three kinds of assemblies that you can create with
C# are the following.
 Console applications
 GUI applications
 Libraries of Types
 Libraries of Types are especially important because
 Applications are going to consist of more and more reusable
component code
 Web Forms and Web Service applications are published as
libraries
Creating a Console Application
Rabbits.cs
using System;
class App{
public static void Main(String[] args){
try{
Int32 iterations = Convert.ToInt32(args[0]);
if(iterations > 138){
throw new Exception();
}
Decimal lastNum = 1;
Decimal secondToLastNum = 0;
while(iterations-- > 0){
Decimal newNum = lastNum+secondToLastNum;
Console.WriteLine(newNum);
secondToLastNum = lastNum;
lastNum = newNum;
}
}catch{
Console.WriteLine(
"Usage: Rabbits [Fib Index]\n"+
"\t[Fib Index] < 139");
}
}
}

c:\> csc Rabbits.cs


Creating a GUI Application
Tribbles.cs
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;

class App{
public static void Main(){
Application.Run(new TribbleForm());
}
}

class TribbleForm:Form{
TextBox generationsTextBox;
ListBox fibList;

// ...

c:\> csc /target:winexe Tribbles.cs


Creating a Code Library
FibObj.cs
using System;
public class Fib{
Decimal current;
Decimal last;
public Fib(){
current = 1;
last = 0;
}
private Fib(Decimal last, Decimal secondToLast){
current = last+secondToLast;
this.last = last;
}
public Fib GetNext(){
return new Fib(current, last);
}
public Decimal Value{
get{return current;}
}
}

c:\> csc /target:library FibObj.cs


Code that Uses a Code Library
FibTest.cs
using System;
class App{
public static void Main(){
Int32 index = 50;
Fib obj = new Fib();
do{
Console.WriteLine(obj.Value);
obj = obj.GetNext();
}while(index-- != 0);
}
}

c:\> csc /r:FibOjb.dll FibTest.cs


Language Concepts
 Syntax based on C/C++
 Case-sensitive
 White space means nothing
 Semicolons (;) to terminate statements
 Code blocks use curly braces ({})
 Some features
 Can create methods with a variable number of arguments
 Parameters are passed by value (by default)
 Can create methods that take parameters by reference
 Can create methods with out-only parameters
 Operator overloading and type converters
 Type-safety and code verification
 Object oriented, code is structured using the class keyword
Primitive Types

 Signed Numeric Primitive Types


 Int32,Int16, Int64, SByte, Double, Single,
Decimal
 Unsigned Numeric Primitive Types
 UInt32, UInt16, UInt64, Byte
 Other Primitives
 Boolean, String, Char, Object
 Primitive Types are FCL Types
 C# Aliases the primitives
 Example: Int32 == int
Conditional Statements
 C# uses if
if(y == x){
Console.WriteLine("y equals x");
}else{
Console.WriteLine("y does not equal x");
}
 C# uses switch
switch(x){
case 2:
Console.WriteLine("x equals 2");
break;
default:
Console.WriteLine("x does not equal 2");
break;
}
C# Loops…
 C# uses for
for(index = 0;index<100;index++){
Console.Write(index);
Console.Write("\t");
}
 C# uses while

index = 10;
while(index != 0){
Console.WriteLine(index);
index--;
}
C# Loops (continued)
 C# uses do-while
index = 0;
do{
Console.WriteLine("Happens at least once");
}while(index < 0);
 C# uses foreach

Int32[] myArray = new Int32[]{10, 20, 30, 40};


foreach(Int32 i in myArray){
Console.WriteLine(i);
}
C# Error Handling
 C# uses try-catch
try{
Int32 index = 10;
while(index-- != 0){
Console.WriteLine(100/index);
}
}catch(DivideByZeroException){
Console.WriteLine(
“Caught division by zero exception");
}
Console.WriteLine(
“Caught; code keeps running");
C# Assured Cleanup

 C# uses try-finally
try{
// Perhaps an exception is thrown or
// return statement is hit
return;
}finally{
Console.WriteLine(
"Code in finally always runs");
}
Using Types
 You will often use types from
 TheFramework Class Library (FCL)
 Third party libraries
TypeFile.cs
using System;
using System.IO;
class App{
public static void Main(String[] args){
StreamReader reader =
new StreamReader(args[0]);
Console.WriteLine(reader.ReadToEnd());
}
}
