Guide to C# and Object Orientation Summary

Guide to C# and Object Orientation by John Hunt

This book shows readers how to get the most out of C# using Object Orientation. The author takes a hands-on approach to learning C# and object orientation, using lots of worked examples. The text provides an ideal base from which to start programming. After introducing the C# language and object orientation, John Hunt goes on to explain: how to construct a user interface for a simple editor; how to obtain information on files and directories and how objects can be stored and restored using serialization... -Presents C# and object-orientation as a coherent whole, using one to strengthen the presentation of the other -Includes lots of complete and worked examples to clarify readers'understanding -The source code for the examples is available at: http://www.guide-to-csharp.net -Hunt is a successful Springer author, and this book is written in the same style as his Java for Practitioners
