Presenting C#

C#,Microsoft's new and exciting programming language, is intended to be astraightforward language that sits atop the Common Language Runtime (CLR) foundin .NET. It was designed from the ground up for simplicity and productivity.

As faras I know, Presenting C# was the first book on the market to cover thisnew language. As a high-level overview of the syntax of C#, this book is unlikemany other programming publications in that it lacks examples. Considering whenit was published, this makes sense, but if you want examples, other books maybe of more interest to you.

PresentingC# covers most ofthe syntax ground rules, such as C# types, classes, control statements,exception handling, deployment, and even a short treatment of COM vs. NET.Granted, you can find the same information on Microsoft's Web site, but it'snot presented as cohesively. Presenting C# is well organized and wellwritten by an experienced programmer/author. I recommend it as an introductory"quick read."
