This simple, modern, object-oriented and type-safe programming language is likely to be taken up immediately by C and C++ programmers. They can now develop internet-based application without learning Java. This language can bring about more speed in building application for the new Microsoft .Net platform, which exploits computing and communication to provide various tools and services. Modern programming demands short cycling times and frequent revision. CSharp does this with fewer lines of the code and less errors. This is the age of internet, and tools are required to work with HTML, XML and SOAP. At present the tool are not the most suitable for working with new technologies. CSharp has a built-in support to turn any component into a web service that can be invoked over the internet form any application running on any platform.
The language also offers features that are available in Java, including better security and garbage collection, which tidies up computer memory used in a software programme. Garbage collection is in of Java’s most popular feature, which helps in reducing the complexity of application development. To attract Java professionals, Microsoft also introduced a tool that can converts the Java software code into CSharp code.
CSharp eliminates costly programming errors, thus software development and revision becomes less costly. For example, even an expert C++ programmer can make the simplest of mistakes like forgetting to initialise a variable. Such mistakes result in unpredictable problem that can remain undiscovered for long period of time. In the case of CSharp, variables are automatically initialised by the environment. Some of the other advantage of CSharp are : garbage collection relieves the programmer of the burden of manual memory management; variable are type-safe; and we can update the software components at a letter time as CSharp include versioning support in the language, which cannot be done in C++ and Java. This helps prevent coding errors and preserve versioning flexibility.
