Naming Variables

• CamelCasing for variables– int MyInteger

• PascalCasing for methods– Public void HelloWorld(){…};

• Interfaces start with I• A good reference:http://www.csharpfriends.com/articles/getarticle.aspx?articleid=336

Commenting

• // Single line• /* Multi line */• /// This is how you describe methods

Access

• Public: accessible anywhere• Private: only accessible within the class• Protected: only accessible within the same

hierarchy

Properties

• Members that provide a mechanism to read, write or compute the values of private fields

• They expose a public way of getting and setting values, while hiding implementation.

• The Keyboard value defines the value being set• Properties without a set are read-only

Class TimePeriod{

private double seconds;public double Hours{

get {return seconds/3600;}public set { seconds = value *3600;}

}

Others…

• Class in C# are private by default• Booleans are “bool”• Instead of ArrayList<Type> , we have List<Type>• List.length -> list.Count
