C Sharp Tutorial will help beginners as well as professionals who are seeking for a change in their daily life general purpose programming language.

What is C#?

C# (Pronounced as see-sharp) is a general purpose object oriented programming language developed by Microsoft in the year of 2002 . The latest version of the language was released  as C# 7.2 along with Visual studio 2017 version 15.5 .

C# is approved by ECMA, ISO as a standard . C# is designed for CLI which stands for common language infrastructure (Executable code and run time environment ).

C# is influenced by C, C++, java, Pascal and many other object oriented programming languages.

Using C# we can develop following Applications

  1. Window applications
  2. Web applications
  3. Distributed applications
  4. Web service applications
  5. Database applications etc.

History of C#

History of C# is very interesting to know. In January, 1999 Anders Hejlsberg formed a team to build a C like object oriented programming language. At the time of creation they named the project as COOL which was abbreviated as C-like object oriented language but due to trademark reasons, they refused the name and renamed it as C# which means an addition to C++ and  was inspired by musical notation where a sharp indicates that the written note should be made a semitone higher in pitch.

The sharp symbol also represents four addition ‘+’ signs which shows C# as an addition to C++ programming language.
