Product Description

Product Description

This book is for busy programmers who want a succinct and yet readable guide to C# 3.0 and LINQ. C# 3.0 Pocket Reference tells you exactly what you need to know, without long introductions or bloated samples.

Despite its conciseness, this book doesn't skimp on depth or detail, and embraces the conceptual challenges in learning C# 3.0 and LINQ. Tightly focused and highly practical, this pocket reference covers more ground than many of the big books on C#.

C# 3.0 Pocket Reference includes plenty of illustrations and code examples to explain:

  • Features new to C# 3.0, such as lambda expressions, anonymous types, automatic properties, and more
  • All aspects of C# syntax, predefined types, expressions, and operators
  • Creating classes, structs, delegates and events, enums, generics and constraints, exception handling, and iterators
  • The subtleties of boxing, operating overloading, delegate covariance, extension method resolution, interface reimplementation, nullable types, and operating lifting
  • LINQ, starting with the principles of sequences, deferred execution and standard query operators, and finishing with a complete reference to query syntax-including multiple generators, joining, grouping, and query continuations
  • Consuming, writing, and reflecting on custom attributes

You'll also find chapters on unsafe code and pointers, preprocessor directives, XML documentation, and a framework overview. If you're already familiar with Java, C++, or an earlier version of C#, C# 3.0 Pocket Reference is an ideal choice.

No other book or online resource can get you up to speed so quickly.

5.0 out of 5 stars A reference for programmers, and for book writers, May 4 2008
By C. Roddie "croddie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: C# 3.0 Pocket Reference: Instant Help for C# 3.0 Programmers (Paperback)
I agree with the positive comments of the other reviews but would recommend this book for learning C#. It is well structured for the purpose of learning the language and does not assume familiarity with it: it defines the necessary concepts.
Even though programming is a very logical enterprise, programming books have a tradition of extreme verbosity, and so I hope this series continues to grow because it is almost the only place one can get the concision that allows for quick learning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick and Effective, Dec 26 2008
By George - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: C# 3.0 Pocket Reference: Instant Help for C# 3.0 Programmers (Paperback)
This book can be used by those who may have little prior knowledge of C#, but some general programming experience or as a quick reference for those familiar with C#. The reader will find page after page dedicated to quick, short topics in C# 3.0.

This is not a programming tutorial, it is quick and easy reference for the C# 3.0 language. If the reader wants an in depth book on C#, this is not the book. If you are looking for short, concise information about C# 3.0, this is a great little book.

Topics are explain in one or two brief paragraphs. Enough information to understand the topic without overloading the reader with details. The code examples are short and to the point.
