What is C#?
 It is an object-oriented programming language
created by Microsoft that runs on the .NET
Framework.
 C# is used for
• Mobile applications (Xamarin.Forms or MAUI)
• Desktop applications (WinForms & WFP )
• Web applications (ASP.NET )
• Games (Unity)
 .Others
.NET Framework
 The .NET Framework is a software development
framework developed by Microsoft that provides a
runtime environment and a set of libraries and
tools for building and running applications on
Windows operating systems.
.NET Framework Components
 The framework includes a variety of
programming languages, such as C#, F#,
and Visual Basic, and supports a range of
application types, including desktop, web,
mobile, and gaming applications.

The Visual Studio IDE
 The Visual Studio is where you create and test your
C# projects.
 A development environment such as Visual Studio
is called an integrated development environment
( IDE ) .
 The IDE consists of various tools, including a form designer,
which allows you to visually create a form; an editor, for
entering and modifying program code; a compiler, for
translating the C# statements into the intermediate machine
code; a debugger, to help locate and correct program errors.
Visual Studio Editions
 Community Editions (Free)
 Professional Editions
 Enterprise Editions
Visual Studio IDE
The Windows Graphical User Interface
 Microsoft Windows uses a graphical user interface
 The Windows GUI defines how the various
elements look and function.
 As a C# programmer, you have available a
toolbox of these elements. You will create new
windows, called forms . Then you will use the
toolbox to add the various elements, called
controls
Graphical user interfaces for application programs
designed with C# and Windows Forms.

Event driven programming
 Event-driven programming is an approach in
which code is written to respond to events.
 Events can be triggered by users, such as by
clicking on an icon or entering some text.
Demonstration of Event driven programming
Writing C# Programs
 When you write a C# application, you follow a three-step
process for creating the project.

1. Define the user interface


2. Set the properties .
3. Write the code
Design the User Interface
 The first step in planning is to design the user
interface.
Set Properties
Writing Code
C# Application Files
Automatically Generated Code
 The Using Statements
 The Namespace Statement
 The Class Statement
The Using Statements
 The using statements appear at the top of the file
after the comments that you wrote.
 Using statements provide references to standard
groups of classes from the language library.
 For example, the statement using
System.Windows. Forms; allows your program to
refer to all of the Windows controls that appear in
the toolbox
The Namespace Statement
 Namespace provides a way to refer to
programming components by location or
organization.
 In the Label example in the preceding section,
“Label” is the class and “System.Windows.Forms”
is the namespace, or library grouping where
“Label” is found.
The Class Statement
 In object-oriented programming, code is organized into
classes.
 A new class can be based on (inherit from) another class,
which gives the new class all of the properties and
methods of the original class (the base class).
 When you create a new form, you declare a new class , the
new class inherits from the Form base class, which makes
your new form behave like a standard form.
