2609 Introduction to C# Programming with Microsoft .NET

5 days/Instructor-led

Introduction

In this five-day instructor-led course, developers learn the fundamental skills that are required to design and develop object-oriented applications for the Web and Microsoft Windows® by using Microsoft Visual C#® .NET and the Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET development environment. This course provides an alternative entry point for less experienced programmers who are not familiar with object-oriented design and programming with Windows or the Web.

Audience

This course is intended for:

· Developers who are not familiar with object-oriented programming.

· Developers who understand computer programming, but may have learned programming by using a non-graphical language in a university.

These developers want to build highly functional Web and Windows solutions and Web Services by using Microsoft Visual C# .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework.

At Course Completion

After completing this course, students will be able to:

· Explain the .NET platform.

· Configure and use Visual Studio .NET.

· Program with C#.

· Implement methods.

· Implement encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism in C#.

· Use C# within the .NET Framework.

· Use Microsoft ADO.NET to access and manipulate data in a database.

· Create feature-rich Windows-based applications.

· Create a Web application by using Web Forms.

· Use XML Web services in a C# application.

· Experiment with more advanced features of C#.

Prerequisites

· Experience with object-oriented programming and concepts is not required for this course. Before attending this course, students must have competency in the following areas:

· Familiarity and comfort with basic operating system functions such as file manipulation.

· Understanding of the basics of structured programming, including concepts such as flow control, variables and parameters, and function calls.

· At least three months experience developing applications in either a graphical or non-graphical environment, or equivalent knowledge.
