.NET Training Overview
Microsoft .NET is an advance in programming technology that greatly simplifies application development, both for traditional, proprietary applications and for the emerging paradigm of Web-based services. .NET is a complete restructuring of Microsoft’s entire system infrastructure and represents a major learning challenge for programmers developing applications on Microsoft platforms.
This two-day intensive 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 2008 and .NET 3.5, which introduces important new features such as implicit typing, extension methods, lambda expressions and Language-Integrated Query (LINQ). The new features are covered in a new chapter.
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#. The next chapter discusses how C# relates to the .NET Framework. The following chapter covers delegates and events. The course includes a succinct introduction to creating GUI programs using Windows Forms. The course concludes with a chapter covering the new features in C#. An appendix provides a tutorial on Visual Studio 2008.
The course is practical, with many example programs and a progressively developed case study. The goal is to quickly bring you up to speed in writing C# programs. The student will receive a comprehensive set of materials, including course notes and all the programming examples.
.NET Training Learning Objectives
- Acquire a working knowledge of C# programming
- Learn about important interactions between C# and the .NET Framework
- Learn how to implement simple GUI programs using Windows Forms
- Gain a working knowledge of implicit typing, object initializers, anonymous types, extension methods, lambda expression, LINQ, and other new features in C# 3.0.
.NET Training Prerequisites
The student should be an experienced application developer or architect. Some background in object-oriented programming would be helpful.
.NET Training Course duration
2 days. The course could also be presented over a 3-day timeframe for somewhat less experienced students.
