Microsoft developed C#, a new programming language based on the C and C++ languages. Microsoft describes C# in this way: ”C# is a simple, modern, object–oriented, and typesafe programming language derived from C and C++. C# (pronounced c sharp) is firmly planted in the C and C++ family tree of languages and will immediately be familiar to C and C++ programmers. C# aims to combine the high productivity of visual basic and raw power of C++.”
Anders Hejlsberg, the principal architect of C#, is known for his work with Borland on Turbo Pascal and Delphi (based on object–oriented Pascal). After leaving Borland, Hejlsberg worked at Microsoft on Visual J++.
Some aspects of C# will be familiar to those, who have programmed in C, C++, or Java. C# incorporates the Smalltalk concept, which means everything is an object. In other words, all types in C# are objects. C# properties are similar to Visual Basic language properties. The Rapid Application Development (RAD) goal in C# is assisted by C#’s use of concepts and keyword, such as class, structure, statement, operator, and enumeration. The language also utilizes the concepts contained in the Component Object Model (COM) architecture.
Unlike Visual Basic or Delphi, Events is a type in C# and can belong to an object. Members of a class object can have variables, methods, properties, attributes, and events. Attributes are another nice feature of C# language.
