C# 4.0 Unleashed ( Unleashed )
C# 4.0 Unleashed is a practical reference focusing on the C#
language and the .NET platform as a whole. While covering the language
in lots of detail, it also provides enough coverage of various popular
.NET technologies and techniques (such as debugging) for the reader to
be successful on the .NET platform. The in-depth coverage of the
language features is crucial to the success of a developer. Knowing
exactly where and why to use certain language features can boost
efficiency significantly. This book differs from other works by going
into enough depth on how things work, while not being a clone of the
formal language specification. Concise anecdotes with concrete samples
illustrate how certain language features behave, and also point out
possible caveats in using them. On the side of platform coverage, the
author provides a gentle introduction to the wide landscape of the .NET
platform, following a logical structure that reflects the high-level
architecture of an application: presentation, logic, data, connectivity,
etc. In the .NET part of the book there's coverage of relevant new
technologies such as cloud computing, modeling, and parallel programming
- things that will gain much more attention moving forward.
