Index initializers make it possible to create and initialize objects with indexes at the same time. This makes initializing Dictionaries very easy: var dict = new Dictionary<string, int>() { ["foo"] = 34, ["bar"] = 42 }; Any object that has an indexed gette...

String interpolation allows the developer to combine variables and text to form a string. Basic Example Two int variables are created: foo and bar. int foo = 34; int bar = 42; string resultString = $"The foo is {foo}, and the bar is {bar}."; Console.WriteLine(resultString); ...

By definition, the short-circuiting boolean operators will only evaluate the second operand if the first operand can not determine the overall result of the expression. It means that, if you are using && operator as firstCondition && secondCondition it will evaluate secondCondition ...

Starting with C# 6, collections with indexers can be initialized by specifying the index to assign in square brackets, followed by an equals sign, followed by the value to assign. Dictionary Initialization An example of this syntax using a Dictionary: var dict = new Dictionary<string, int> ...

public class Animal { public string Name { get; set; } public Animal() : this("Dog") { } public Animal(string name) { Name = name; } } var dog = new Animal(); // dog.Name will be set to "Dog" by default. var cat = new Ani...

Declaration: class MyGenericClass<T1, T2, T3, ...> { // Do something with the type parameters. } Initialisation: var x = new MyGenericClass<int, char, bool>(); Usage (as the type of a parameter): void AnotherMethod(MyGenericClass<float, byte, char> arg) { ... } ...

Declaration: void MyGenericMethod<T1, T2, T3>(T1 a, T2 b, T3 c) { // Do something with the type parameters. } Invocation: There is no need to supply type arguements to a genric method, because the compiler can implicitly infer the type. int x =10; int y =20; string z = "tes...

Declaration: interface IMyGenericInterface<T1, T2, T3, ...> { ... } Usage (in inheritance): class ClassA<T1, T2, T3> : IMyGenericInterface<T1, T2, T3> { ... } class ClassB<T1, T2> : IMyGenericInterface<T1, T2, int> { ... } class ClassC<T1> : IMyGenericI...

using System; using System.Reflection; using System.Linq; public class Program { public static void Main() { var members = typeof(object) .GetMembers(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Static | ...

When an object graph is finalized, the order is the reverse of the construction. E.g. the super-type is finalized before the base-type as the following code demonstrates: class TheBaseClass { ~TheBaseClass() { Console.WriteLine("Base class finalized!"); } } ...

To avoid duplicating code, define common methods and attributes in a general class as a base: public class Animal { public string Name { get; set; } // Methods and attributes common to all animals public void Eat(Object dinner) { // ... } public void Stare()...

An interface is used to enforce the presence of a method in any class that 'implements' it. The interface is defined with the keyword interface and a class can 'implement' it by adding : InterfaceName after the class name. A class can implement multiple interfaces by separating each interface with ...

public class Animal { public string Name { get; set; } } public interface INoiseMaker { string MakeNoise(); } //Note that in C#, the base class name must come before the interface names public class Cat : Animal, INoiseMaker { public Cat() { Name = "Ca...

public void SerializeFoo(string fileName, Foo foo) { var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Foo)); using (var stream = File.Open(fileName, FileMode.Create)) { serializer.Serialize(stream, foo); } }

public Foo DeserializeFoo(string fileName) { var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Foo)); using (var stream = File.OpenRead(fileName)) { return (Foo)serializer.Deserialize(stream); } }

<Foo> <Dog/> </Foo> public class Foo { // Using XmlElement [XmlElement(Name="Dog")] public Animal Cat { get; set; } }

<Store> <Articles> <Product/> <Product/> </Articles> </Store> public class Store { [XmlArray("Articles")] public List<Product> Products {get; set; } }

This method returns an IEnumerable with all the elements that meets the lambda expression Example var personNames = new[] { "Foo", "Bar", "Fizz", "Buzz" }; var namesStartingWithF = personNames.Where(p => p.StartsWith("F")); Console.W...

var persons = new[] { new {Id = 1, Name = "Foo"}, new {Id = 2, Name = "Bar"}, new {Id = 3, Name = "Fizz"}, new {Id = 4, Name = "Buzz"} }; var personsSortedByName = persons.OrderBy(p => p.Name); Console.WriteLine(string.Join(&quo...

var persons = new[] { new {Id = 1, Name = "Foo"}, new {Id = 2, Name = "Bar"}, new {Id = 3, Name = "Fizz"}, new {Id = 4, Name = "Buzz"} }; var personsSortedByNameDescending = persons.OrderByDescending(p => p.Name); Console.WriteL...
