Hands-On Object-Oriented Programming with C#

By: Raihan Taher

Overview of this book

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm organized around objects rather than actions, and data rather than logic. With the latest release of C#, you can look forward to new additions that improve object-oriented programming. This book will get you up to speed with OOP in C# in an engaging and interactive way. The book starts off by introducing you to C# language essentials and explaining OOP concepts through simple programs. You will then go on to learn how to use classes, interfacesm and properties to write pure OOP code in your applications. You will broaden your understanding of OOP further as you delve into some of the advanced features of the language, such as using events, delegates, and generics. Next, you will learn the secrets of writing good code by following design patterns and design principles. You'll also understand problem statements with their solutions and learn how to work with databases with the help of ADO.NET. Further on, you'll discover a chapter dedicated to the Git version control system. As you approach the conclusion, you'll be able to work through OOP-specific interview questions and understand how to tackle them. By the end of this book, you will have a good understanding of OOP with C# and be able to take your skills to the next level.

Understanding Design Patterns and Principles

Over the years, software has become increasingly complicated. Now, software is not only used for mathematical calculations or simple create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations: we are employing it to carry out complex tasks, such as controlling rocket engines or managing huge amounts of data every day. Businesses from a vast range of sectors have started to adopt software systems, including banks, insurance companies, research institutes, education institutes, and government agencies. The higher the demand for software, the more people begin to build careers in software development. From assembly-language programming, came procedural programming, before the introduction of the era of Object-oriented programming (OOP), which is still the most popular model, despite the emergence of other types of programming, such as functional...
