Learning to Program the Object-Oriented Way with C#

C# is a modern, object-oriented language that enables programmers to quickly build a wide range of applications for the new Microsoft .NET platform, which provides tools and services that fully exploit both computing and communications. Learning to Program the Object-Oriented Way with C# presents an introductory guide to this hot topic. The authors use a practice-based approach supported by lots of examples of increasing complexity and frequent graded exercises, which are available online. -Introduces an approach to learning programming based on the use of object orientation from day one. -Includes many worked examples, the code and solution to which are available online. -The book is being technically reviewed and approved by Microsoft. -One of the first introductory textbooks on C# and object orientation - based on the final release version at the beginning of 2002. -Suitable for courses in introductory programming. C# is a new, object-oriented language that can be used to write a wide

range of applications for the new Microsoft .NET platform - applications that can be distributed over the Internet. It is an ideal language for the new programmer. Learning to Program the Object-Oriented Way with C# shows you how to programme with C#, using an object-oriented approach. It explains about: *
Objects and classes *
Variables, types and assignment *
Abstraction and encapsulation *
Characters and strings *
Arrays *
Inheritance *
Error handling *
GUI development With lots of examples and exercises, the authors guide you through the process of learning to programme using C#. Additional information and resources are available from the associated web site: csharp.dsg.cs.tcd.ie " The thing that I like the most about Learning to Program the Object-Oriented Way with C# is that it does a great job at explaining a subject in the abstract, and then implements those concepts in C# sample code. I heartily recommend this book for those who are interested in learning object-oriented programming." Eric Gunnerson, Program Manager, Visual C# Team, Author, "A Programmer's Introduction to C#"

In other words, the best way to master the complexity of writing a large computer program is to carve it up into manageable chunks and tackle each chunk more or less separately.
