When I looked at the first post in this series, I realized had jumped the gun a bit by going straight to generics and didn’t do enough justice to the fundamentals. So in this post, I have made an effort to go back to the basics. The CLR (Common Language Runtime) is [...] I have always believed that strong typing is the holy grail of .NET, which is not to be messed with, and it has been my primary grouse with VB.NET is that it uses sneaky workarounds to circumvent the typing rules of the CLR. C# for most of its initial existence followed static typing [...] I have always believed that when it comes to blogging, brevity is soul and its very important to convey your idea in as less words as possible. Of course with technical blogs its an altogether different ball game with most of the visitors coming through search engines and looking for specific topics, where [...] Binary Trees are tree type data structures that contain two child nodes. They can be used to implement Binary Search trees, structures where the left child has a value lesser than the node and the right child has a greater value. Usually Linear collection objects require iteration linearly over the list. In the [...] Recently someone asked me to write a TicTacToe game. So I worked out a rough logic for it. Heres the code. The idea is that the computer first scans through the tic-tac-toe board for any winning positions available. If none are available, then it looks for the manual user’s winning positions. If its able to [...] In continuation to my earlier post about multithreading in .NET, I am writing about the ReaderWriterLock class which is one more method of thread synchronization. The ReaderWriterLock is based on the fact that the Monitor locking (lock keyword in C#) doesnt really make any distinction whether the thread accessing the variable is [...] I got an interesting problem by email recently where someone had asked me to solve the given below problem:- A squad of robotic rovers are to be landed by NASA on a plateau on Mars.This plateau, which is curiously rectangular, must be navigated by therovers so that their on-board cameras can get a complete view of [...] How often have you faced the irritating not responding screen while the application waits for the data that you requested for. The problem is not with bad code or a slow database, the problem with conventional applications is that all the code is executed on a single thread. i.e. whenever an operation is [...] Events and Delegates are quite tied together in .NET, but there are differences in terms of usage. Events are implemented through delegates, but they are not quite interchangeable. The event keyword is an access modifier on the delegate which restricts its usage outside the class which it belongs to. First the similarities. [...] In the previous post we saw how anonymous methods can help reduce verbose delegate code. With C# 3.0, there was a new language feature introduced which further reduces the delegate code – Lambda expressions. Lambda expressions use automatic type inference, which relieves you of explicitly declaring the type. Here is a simple example of lambda [...] |
