Course Objectives
C# (pronounced "See Sharp") is a simple, modern, and powerful programming language used to build robust, stable, and safe applications in a quick and easy way. According to a recent Stack Overflow survey, it is one of the most demanded and used programming languages in the industry.
This course is designed to teach the fundamentals of C#. A particular focus will be on creating Windows desktop applications using C#. While this course will mostly cover the fundamental programming concepts, such as variables, string operations, conditions, etc., in the C# context, some advance topics such as databases, LINQ will also be introduced. Although recommended, prior programming experience is not mandatory.
In this course, students will learn:
- Fundamentals of C#. Compilation and debugging of the C# applications.
- Design of visual interfaces with user controls.
- Variables, data types, arrays, and lists.
- Decision and control structures. User-defined methods.
- Text processing.
- Object-oriented programming.
- Connecting to SQL databases,
- Adding and deleting database records,
- LINQ expressions.
