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.

Examples of object collaboration

Object collaboration is one of the most important topics in OOP. If the objects don't collaborate with each other in a program, nothing can be achieved. For example, if we think about a simple web application, we can see how the relationship between different objects plays an important role in constructing the application. Twitter, for example, has many objects that are related to each other in order to make the application work. The User object consists of the username, password, first name, last name, picture, and other user-related information belonging to Twitter users. There could be another object called Tweet that consists of a message, date and time, the username of the user who posted the tweet, and some other properties. There may also be another object called Message that holds the content of the message, who it was from, who it...
