Preface

Chapter 3. Day 03 - What's New in C#

Today, we will learn a very recent and newly released feature with the current version of the C# language, that is, C# 7.0 (this is the most recent adaptation amid the review of this book). Some of these elements are altogether new and others were present in past adaptations and have been upgraded in the current version of the language. C# 7.0 will change the game with a lot of new features to the table. Some of these elements, such as tuples, are augmentations of officially accessible ideas while others are completely new. Here are the fundamental elements we will learn about on Day 03:

  • Tuples and deconstruction
  • Pattern matching
  • Local functions
  • Literal improvements
  • Async Main
  • Default Expressions
  • Infer Tuple Names
