C# is a modern, object-oriented language that enables programmers to quickly build a wide range of applications for the next- generation Microsoft .NET platform. Because of its elegant design, which combines the raw power of C++ with the simplicity of Visual Basic, C# is a great choice for architecting a wide range of components-from high-level business objects to system- level applications. This MSDN guide includes the essential features and basic concepts of the C# language, plus in-depth analysis of the lexical structure of the language. It also provides details about types, variables, conversions, expressions, statements, namespaces, classes, structures, arrays, interfaces, enumerators, delegates, exceptions, and attributes; information on how C# simplifies coding by omitting pointers as a data type-or lets you get closer to the hardware by declaring and operating on pointers in unsafe code.
