An investigation into the possibilities of Microsoft's .NET coding platform to be used in a third year college project.
I will start by looking into .NET's object orientated coding languagde "C#", pronounded "C - sharp". C# is a language based from the now aging C language, a founder of many languages today. C# is the founding coding language behind Microsofts .NET, the platform that Microsoft is now using to code all of it's latest software. .NET is a higher level coding language that enables it's programmer to write software for use with the .NET runtime both online and locally.
To begin with I will be working my way through Charlse Petzold's, Programming in the Key of C#. This is an introductionary look at the C# language and helps new programmers to get to grips with the basics writing programs using it. The book assumes some basic knowledge of coding, whilst still providing a fairly basic overview of the language and the coding environment. However, it also offers a lot more advanced background information on the language, and others.
