  This book is a comprehensive introduction to the C# programming language.

  It is written for programmers who are new to C# and new to object-oriented

  programming, but who have experience with another language, such as Visual

  Basic or Perl. It is written in the Deitel's signature "live code" style, where every

  programming concept is explored in the context of a complete working

  program, not a code fragment. All code is carefully documented, and output

  screens appear in the text right next to the code listings. The book contains a

  remarkably rich library of sample program code, over 26,000 lines of C# code.

  Deitel books are know for their completeness, and this one does not

  disappoint. It covers everything from C# fundamentals up through such

  related topics as XML, ADO.NET, ASP.NET, Web Services, and C#'s new

  generic collections. All coverage in the book will be updated to Visual Studio

  2005. C# is steadily gaining in usage and popularity, and this book's sales

  should increase with that.

Harvey M. Deitel is one of the world's leading computer science instructors and seminar presenters, and author of twelve books. Paul J. Deitel has taught programming at many of the world's leading companies. Together, they have written numerous books, and are principals of Deitel & Associates, a leading global training firm. Their C# How to Program was the world's first C# college textbook.

The practicing programmer's DEITEL LIVE-CODE guide toC# and the powerful Microsoft .NET Framework.

C# for Experienced Programmers is written for programmers with backgrounds in C++, Visual Basic, Java or other high-level languages, who want to learn C# through the intermediate level. If you already own C# How To Program, 1/e, you should not purchase C# for Experienced Programmers. However, you may be interested in our ASP .NET with C# for Experienced Programmers, which will be published in Summer 2003. Students should not purchase C# for Experienced Programmers. Instead, students should purchase C# How To Program, 1/e, as it contains self-review exercises and other ancillary materials suitable for self-study and classroom use. We also recommend that everyone consider The Complete C# Training Course, 1/e, which includes C# How to Program, 1/e and the C# Cyber Classroom--an interactive, multimedia, Windows-based CD-ROM. The Complete Training Course offers a great value and provides a powerful learning tool for readers who want to pursue C# programming through the intermediate level.

Written for programmers with a background in C++, Visual Basic, Java or other high-level languages, this book applies the DEITEL signature LIVE-CODE approach to teaching programming and explores Microsoft's C# language in depth. This book presents important C# concepts in the context of fully tested programs, complete with syntax shading, detailed line-by-line descriptions and program outputs. The book features 230 LIVE-CODE programs that contain 26,006 lines of proven C# program code. In addition, the book includes 402 programming tips that help you build applications that are portable, reusable and optimized for performance.

Start with a concise introduction to C # fundamentals, then rapidly move on to more advanced topics, including Windows Forms, ADO .NET, ASP .NET, ASP .NET Web services, network programming and XML processing. Along the way you will enjoy the Deitels' classic treatment of object-based and object-oriented programming. When you are finished, you will have everything you need to build next-generation Windows applications, Web applications and XML Web services.

Dr. Harvey M. Deitel and Paul J. Deitel are the founders of Deitel & Associates, Inc., the internationally recognized IT content-creation and corporate-training organization. Together with their colleagues at Deitel & Associates, Inc., they have written the successful How to Program Series of college textbooks that hundreds of thousands of students throughout the world have used to master C, C++, Java, C#, Visual Basic .NET, Perl, Python, XML, and other languages.The DEITEL Developer Series is designed for practicing programmers. The series presents focused treatments of emerging technologies, including .NET, J2EE, Web services, and more. Each book in the series contains the same LIVE-CODE teaching methodology used so successfully in the Deitels' How to Program Series college textbooks and instructor-led, corporate-training courses. The DEITEL Developer Series includes a wide selection of books suitable for three types of readers: A Technical Introduction Broad overviews of new technologies for programmers, technical managers and other technical professionals A Programmer's Introduction Focused treatments of programming fundamentals for practicing programmers and for novices For Experienced Programmers Detailed treatments of language topics for experienced programmersDEITEL TESTIMONIALS

  Appropriate for all courses in Web services for both introductory computer science students and students following a business track.

  In Web Services: A Technical Introduction, the world-renowned Deitel & Associates training organization presents a complete overview of Web services for both business and technical students. The authors illuminate both the technology underlying Web services and the business implications of implementing them. Students will start by understanding what Web services are, how they differ from previous computing paradigms, and what benefits they offer. They will explore each leading Web service business model, including B2B and B2C scenarios, and the core standards that enable them: XML, SOAP, WSDL and UDDI. The book reviews strategies of key industry players such as Microsoft, Sun, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, BEA, Oracle, and IONA; then moves on to detailed treatments of both .NET and Java Web services. Students will learn about Web services security: both the risks involved and the technologies for mitigating them. Numerous case studies explain how Web services enable organizations to increase efficiency, create new revenue streams and interact with customers and business partners more effectively. Appendices contain Visual Basic .NET and Java™ LIVE-CODE™ implementations of Web services applications, a complete introduction to XML markup, and an up-to-date guide to online Web services information resources.
