.NET Training Overview
Microsoft’s .NET is a revolutionary advance in programming technology that greatly simplifies application development and is a good match for the emerging paradigm of Web-based services, as opposed to proprietary applications. Part of this technology is a new language, C#. This new language combines the power of C++ and the ease of development of Visual Basic. It bears a striking resemblance to Java and improves on that language. C# may well become the dominant language for building applications on Microsoft platforms.
This one-day course is designed for the experienced programmer to help you quickly come up to speed on the C# language. It is current to Visual Studio 2005 and .NET 2.0.
For students pursuing MCTS certification, this course provides the C# foundation required for Wintrac series of courses designed to assist in exam preparation. Further important topics in C#, such as interfaces, delegates and events, are covered in the follow-on course CS5, .NET Framework Foundations Using C#.
This course concisely covers the essentials of programming using Microsoft’s new C# programming language. It starts with a brief chapter, “.NET: What You Need to Know,” which gets you up and running in the .NET environment with a minimum of fuss. The next two chapters cover C# language essentials and object-oriented programming in C#. An appendix provides a tutorial on Visual Studio 2005, including the freely downloadable Visual C# 2005 Express Edition.
The course is practical, with many example programs. The student will receive a comprehensive set of materials, including course notes and all the programming examples.
