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.

User-defined exceptions

Sometimes, you'll encounter a situation where you might think that the predefined exceptions do not satisfy your condition. In this instance, you might wish there was a way to create your own exception classes and use them. Thankfully, in C#, there is actually a mechanism where you can create your own custom exceptions, and can write whatever message is appropriate for that kind of exception. Let's look at an example of how to create and use custom exceptions:

using System;

namespace ExceptionCode
{

class HelloException : Exception
{
public HelloException() { }
public HelloException(string message) : base(message) { }
public HelloException(string message, Exception inner) : base(message, inner) { }
}

class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{
throw new HelloException("Hello is an exception!");
}
catch (HelloException ex)
