Who should attend 55339 Programming in C# Course
This course is intended for experienced developers who already have programming experience in C, C++, JavaScript, Objective-C, Microsoft Visual Basic, or Java, and understand the concepts of object-oriented programming. This course is not designed for students who are new to programming; it is targeted at professional developers with at least one month of experience programming in an object-oriented environment. Those new to programming should consider course 55337 - Introduction to Programming. The 55337 course uses C# as the language to facilitate an introduction to programming generally, whereas this course focuses on the C# language itself, making it an excellent follow-on course. If you want to learn to take full advantage of the C# language, then this is the course for you.

FAQs on 55339 Programming in C#
This course is designed for experienced developers who already know C, C++, JavaScript, Objective-C, Visual Basic, or Java, and understand object-oriented programming concepts. It is intended for professionals with at least one month of experience programming in an object-oriented environment, not beginners.
Students should have some limited experience using C# to complete basic programming tasks, along with a solid understanding of object-oriented programming concepts from prior experience in another language.
This course is not designed for programming beginners. Those new to programming should instead take course 55337 – Introduction to Programming, which uses C# to teach general programming concepts before moving on to this more advanced, language-focused course.
The course covers C# syntax, classes, inheritance, collections, exception handling, file I/O, database access with Entity Framework and LINQ, web services, GUI development with XAML, asynchronous programming, and code reuse techniques like generics and attributes.
You will be able to build well-structured, maintainable C# applications, create desktop and web-connected apps, implement data access and serialization, design graphical interfaces, and use asynchronous operations to improve application performance.
