Mastering C# and .NET Framework

Overview of this book

Mastering C# and .NET Framework will take you in to the depths of C# 6.0/7.0 and .NET 4.6, so you can understand how the platform works when it runs your code, and how you can use this knowledge to write efficient applications. Take full advantage of the new revolution in .NET development, including open source status and cross-platform capability, and get to grips with the architectural changes of CoreCLR. Start with how the CLR executes code, and discover the niche and advanced aspects of C# programming – from delegates and generics, through to asynchronous programming. Run through new forms of type declarations and assignments, source code callers, static using syntax, auto-property initializers, dictionary initializers, null conditional operators, and many others. Then unlock the true potential of the .NET platform. Learn how to write OWASP-compliant applications, how to properly implement design patterns in C#, and how to follow the general SOLID principles and its implementations in C# code. We finish by focusing on tips and tricks that you'll need to get the most from C# and .NET. This book also covers .NET Core 1.1 concepts as per the latest RTM release in the last chapter.

Initially, OWASP is thought to be a global set of guides and proposals about security, centralized and published by OWASP.org, a nonprofit organization focused on improving the security of software by making security visible, so organizations and individuals have a starting point that provides practical and impartial information about security issues.

Its official web page can be found at https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Main_Page, and it offers guidelines about application security tools and standards as well as books, controls, and libraries, research on several security topics, worldwide conferences, mailing lists, and a long list of resources.
