Clark D. Beginning C# Object-Oriented Programming

Apress, 2011. - 368 p. - ISBN: 978-1430235309Beginning C# Object-Oriented Programming brings you into the modern world of development as you master the fundamentals of programming with C# and learn to develop efficient, reusable, elegant code through the object-oriented programming (OOP) methodology. Take your skills out of the 20th century and into this one with Dan Clark’s accessible, quick-paced guide to C# and object-oriented programming, completely updated for .NET 4.0 and C# 4.0.As you develop techniques and best practices for coding in C#, one of the world’s most popular contemporary languages, you’ll experience modeling a real world application through a case study, allowing you to see how both C# and OOP (a methodology you can use with any number of languages) come together to make your code reusable, modern, and efficient.With more than 30 fully hands-on activities, you’ll discover how to transform a simple model of an application into a fully-functional C# project, including designing the user interface, implementing the business logic, and integrating with a relational database for data storage. Along the way, you will explore the .NET Framework, the creation of a Windows-based user interface, a web-based user interface, and service-oriented programming, all using Microsoft’s industry-leading Visual Studio 2010, C#, Silverlight, the Entity Framework, and more.What you’ll learn.
- Learn to use the Universal Modeling Language (UML) to quickly design an application correctly from the first time.
- Understand object-oriented programming principles and how they benefit your work in today’s dual Web- and Windows-based world.
- Integrate OOP fundamentals when developing code in C#.
- Discover the .NET Framework and how it can help you create applications quickly and efficiently.
- Walk along as the author develops a complete Windows- and Web-based application using the techniques and best practices covered inside.
