Book Overview
C# is a modern, object-oriented language that combines the simplicity of Visual
Basic with the power and flexibility of C++. C# has been specifically designed
by Microsoft to be the language of choice for writing applications for their
new .NET platform - the first development platform designed from the ground up
with the Internet in mind.
As well as providing a tutorial to the C# language itself, C# Programming With
The Public Beta provides a great introduction to the .NET framework and will
give the developer everything they need to orientate themselves in this exciting
new environment and start building real-world applications.
Who is this book for?
Existing developers, probably with a C++, Java, or Visual Basic background
who want an overview of C# and practical information on how they can develop
in C# on the .NET platform. This book was written on the public beta release
and while we can't guarantee that the final version will be identical, you can
be sure that almost all of the concepts, examples and explanations will still
be valid for the final release.
