C# resources (1 Viewer)

Anyone know of a good resource to learn c#? I know i could search google for some tutorials but was hoping for some input on which one would be best. I would like to start helping out programming with MP but need to learn C# first.

Do you read any other programming languages?

Watch the C# Videos here: Windows Development

I did php a while back and i also started reading some c++ (cant really do anything in c++), i also know some VB (about 2 years ago).

Thanks for the video link

I read this one:
Amazon.com: Sams Teach Yourself C# in 21 Days (Sams Teach Yourself): Bradley L. Jones: Books

I think it is a very good book

O'Reily - Programming C#
Also, get a book on the whole theory of OO programming.

Most of all - practice. If there are examples in the book, type them out, compile them etc.
Also, dont go jumping into the whole GUI programming, most books stick to text/console based apps - and even though this is boring, its is the important part. I spend 99% of my time writing code with no GUI at work.

The best thing to do (especially if you are a hobbiest) is to pick a project, either small or large, that you are interested in and attack it. Look up things you don't understand in your book or the internet. The key here is interest. If you're in school, you're forced to learn these things. If you are learning on your own, this will quickly get boring.

Then he would need to find a project that's not too advanced, no threading, no delegates, no ...
And that's probably hard to find.

I'd say a good way to learn a programming language is to start with some basic hello-world code, then advance to some small applications like an advanced calculator (with matrices, functions, graphs, ...) to practice loops and such.
After that you could pick a project to workk on.

HA! I did that one!

(And that is all I ever done )
