from c++ to c#

[alaa sam]

hi everyone
I have been programing in c++ for a while now, but I'm asked to write project in c#,
so is hard to learn it ?? also I have never wrote a program with interface , so is it possible to write console application then build the interface ?
and I would appreciate it you give me some links to learn c#.
thanks in advance

Hello alaa_sam,

C# isn't that hard to learn, especially when you come from C++. In fact I found it very easy. And yes, you can write a console application to open forms and such (if that is what you mean).

Here are some tutorials to begin with:

I ALSO learned it by just hacking (at first) and watching others code in videos on DNRTV.

I knew C++ and a little Java, so that really helped in understanding.

Buy a book like C# 4.0: The Complete Reference by Herbert Schildt

what I meant is that if I wrote my code as a console application Can I easily change it to windows application by building the forms ??
and thanks a lot for your attention all

I bought a book on C# and read most of it one day, the knowledge seemed to sort of sink in once I wanted to use C# for some small projects.

The code you use in a console application is exactly the same that you can use in a forms application. The only diffrence is the GUI.

Yes you can. I wouldn't recommewnd it, as you'll need to tie your program logic into the form, which can be confusing if you've designed it around a console.

You will eventually learn to write your code so the display is just for input/output and does not interfere with the logic of the program.

After some time, you will write a lot of your code that has no UI at all; it will just return values -- that way, the display or output mechanism won't matter at all. You'll compuile the assemblies in DLL form and reference them from any project you need (web, WinForm, Console, etc.).
