Help, I just have a C# book.

[Hellodear]

Hi,

I am a newb in C#. I want to make programming in C#. What is the pre requisites? Somebody told me that we need to download Microsoft framework SDK and install it on OS. Is it all for us in this case?

Hope somebody would respond,

Be warned it's a big download.

Also take a look at this site, it's IDE is much smaller and faster than the hughely swollen MS Express C# deal.

SharDevelop is a free IDE for C#, VB.NET and Boo projects on Microsoft's .NET platform. It is open-source, and you can download both sourcecode and executables from this site.

See if you have something like "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ ..." on your computer. That may be all you need.

Also, let me warn you, C# will make your fingers sore with all the typing you will do!

Also, if you just want to run the book's code to see what it does, you can just use the free
SnippetCompiler.exe
