Explore C# syntax and dotnet basics, including the common language runtime and automatic memory management, using Visual Studio to build desktop and ASP.NET web applications.
Discover C# data types from int, long, and decimal to datetime, learn operators and type inference with var, and use dot syntax to access members and strings.
Master conditional logic and iteration in C# by using if, switch, for, foreach, while, and do-while, and explore arrays with zero-based indexing. Discover namespaces, Visual Studio debugging, and breakpoints.
Demonstrate an intensive module 1 demo and practice, showing how to create C# projects in Visual Studio, including console and web apps, use loops and arrays, and debug.
Master C# syntax details, learn how to create and invoke methods, and handle exceptions, while exploring variables, data types, and Visual Studio tools for back-end development.
Learn implicit and explicit conversions in C#, cast between types, parse numbers from strings with int.Parse, int.TryParse, and Convert, and understand type ranges and error handling.
Learn core C# back-end concepts: data types, operators, implicit and explicit conversions, regular expressions, strings, if/switch, arrays, namespaces, and methods with parameters, ref/out, overloading, and debugging in Visual Studio.
Explore method design in C#, including overloading, optional and named parameters, and out parameters, with examples like stop service overloads. Learn try-catch-finally exception handling and throwing errors.
Learn exception handling in C#, including try-catch-finally and throwing, and master logging and tracing with event logs, files, and debug versus trace configurations.
Explore enums and structs, learn how to define and use them with properties and constructors, and understand value versus reference types when organizing data into collections.
Explore C# back-end fundamentals by mastering structs and classes, properties, indexers, and a variety of collections including non-generic and generic lists, dictionaries, and queues.
Read data from text files and databases, build a simple customer model, compare collections for fast searches, and demonstrate language integrated queries for filtering, grouping, and sorting.
Explore delegates and events in .NET, define delegates, raise and subscribe to events, and implement the observer pattern in C# for desktop UI apps like WPF and XAML.
Learn to create classes, define interfaces, and use type-safe collections, with focus on constructors, value vs reference types, static versus instance members, and unit testing practices.
Explore unit testing in Visual Studio using arrange-act-assert to verify code with simple calculator examples. Learn how to structure tests, use test explorer, and create test projects.
Explore generics in C# by using type parameters like T to create type-safe collections, such as lists and dictionaries, and implement custom enumerables with GetEnumerator for foreach-based iteration.
Understand C# class hierarchies by inheriting base classes and extending functionality with derived types. Compare abstract versus interface, virtual and override, protected access, constructor invocation, and sealed classes.
Explore extending .NET with inheritance, virtual/abstract, and extension methods, build custom exceptions, and master C# file and directory I/O with recursion and streams.
Explore serialization concepts across binary, XML, and JSON formats, using serializers like binary formatter, XML serializer, and Json.NET, and learn about streams, file and network I/O, and handling object graphs.
Access relational data with ADO.NET and Entity Framework, using code-first and database-first approaches, and query with LINQ. Build a DbContext with DbSet to read, write, and migrate data safely.
On completion of this course, you'll possess the ability to:
You will unlock the secrets of C#'s core syntax and features.
Become a pro in creating and calling methods, catching and handling exceptions. Moreover, gain a comprehensive knowledge of the monitoring requirements of large-scale applications.
Master the basic structure and vital elements of a typical desktop application.
Learn to craft classes, implement interfaces, as well as create and use generic collections.
Unleash the power of inheritance to build a class hierarchy, extend a .NET Framework class, and formulate generic classes and methods.
Become deft in reading and writing data using file input/output and streams. Moreover, gain the ability to serialize and deserialize data in different formats.
Harness the strength of creating and using an entity data model for database access and use LINQ to query and update data.
Use the components in the System Net namespace and the WCF Data Services for accessing and querying remote data.
Develop a visually appealing graphical user interface using XAML.
Enhance the speed and responsiveness of applications through the use of tasks and asynchronous operations.
Learn to effectively integrate unmanaged libraries and dynamic components into a C# application.
Discover how to examine a type's metadata using reflection, create and use custom attributes, generate code at runtime, and manage assembly versions.
Be adept at data encryption and decryption using symmetric and asymmetric encryption.
