Description

C# is a multi-paradigm programming language providing a host of new features to build powerful cross-platform applications.  ASP.NET is an open source web framework for building modern web applications and services. If you're a newbie developer who wants to work with C# and .NET Core or an experienced C# developer who wants to gain in-depth knowledge of the advanced concepts of C#, then this learning path is for you.This  comprehensive 2-in-1 course gives you a clear understanding of the latest and advanced features of C# 7 and ASP.NET Core 2.0 to develop high-performance web applications. You will also learn advanced C# programming concepts. It’s a perfect blend of concepts and practical examples which makes it easy to understand and implement. Every section is followed by an exercise that focuses on building something with the language.   This training program includes 2 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.   The first course, Learn C# in 7 days, starts off with explaining the basic fundamentals of C# with the help of real-world practical examples to help you get acquainted with C# programming. You will then learn some important features and nuances of the language in a hands-on way. You will also explore the concepts of Object-oriented programming with the help of real-world examples. Next, you will learn advanced concepts such as generics, collections, objects, LINQ. Finally, you put all your learnings into practice by building an application.   The second course, C# 7 and .NET Core 2.0 Recipes, starts off with a quick introduction to C# and .NET that will prepare you for what comes next. You will then learn about the new features of C# 7. You will also get in-depth knowledge of ASP.NET Core along with the new version of the Entity framework. Finally, you will learn some more advanced concepts of C# such as delegates, lambda expressions, and LINQ.   By the end of this Learning Path, you will have a strong understanding of the latest features of C# and ASP.NET and will be able to develop web applications using them.   Meet Your Expert(s):   We have the best work of the following esteemed author(s) to ensure that your learning journey is smooth:   Gaurav Aroraa has done an M.Phil in computer science.
