C# Code Snippets Operators

C# Operators

In this code snippet, we will take a look at all the operators present in C#. An operator is a symbol or a set of symbols that represent a specific function that will be preformed on the operands(our values or variables). There are multiple types of operators: arithmetic, logical, comparison … In this post, we will take a look at some of the most basic ones. Here is a complete list of all the operators and their functionalities. 

C# Code Snippets Constructors And Destructors

C# Constructors And Destructors

In this code snippet, we’ll learn about constructors in C#. A constructor is a method that gets called when a class is initialized. We can pass arguments into the constructor method and then use them inside the method to initialize the properties of the class. A class can have multiple constructors as they are methods and can thus be overloaded.

C# Code Snippets Variables

C# Variables

In this code snippet, we will learn how to use variables in C#. A variable is a container(aka a place in memory) that holds a value. The value can be any of the many data types in C#. To make a variable you must first declare its data type followed by the name you will use to reference that particular variable. Then you can assign it a value using the = assignment operator.

C# Code Snippets Data Type Conversion

C# Data Type Conversion

In this code snippet, we will learn how to perform data type conversions in C#. C# has many different data types. You might find yourself needing to convert from one data type to another. This can be done implicitly by just assigning the value of one variable to another and the conversion will happen automatically. For example, assigning a short to int can be done implicitly as short is just a smaller int. Meanwhile converting a string to an int has to be done explicitly. 

C# Code Snippets Data Types

C# Data Types

In this code snippet, we will take a look at data types in C#. Data types are used to define the type of data a variable can hold. For example, to store whole numbers you can use int, string for text, char for a single character, double for numeric values with decimal points … Data types also differ in size, byte can hold values from 0 to 255, short can hold values from -32,768 to 32,767, int can hold values from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647, … 

C# Code Snippets Arrays

C# Arrays

In this code snippet, we will learn how to use arrays in C#. Arrays are like boxes, each box is accessible by a number called an index. They are zero-based. This means that the first box in the array has an index of 0, not 1.

C# Code Snippets Fields and Properties

C# Fields and Properties

In this code snippet, we will learn how to implement fields and properties in C#. Fields are just normal variables but declared directly inside of a class. Even though you can make fields public, you shouldn’t(use a property instead). Only use fields locally inside the class.

C# Code Snippets Params Keyword

C# Params Keyword

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use the params keyword in C#. The params keyword is used to define an array of input parameters for a method. Instead of explicitly defining every single one we can just pass in an array of parameters. As you can imagine when you have a lot of parameters this becomes very useful.

C# Code Snippets Access Modifiers

C# Access Modifiers

In this code snippet, we will learn how to use access modifiers in C#. Access modifiers are used to define the access level of types and members. The following access modifiers are available: public, private, protected, internal, protected internal, private protected.
