Abstract

C# is not the only language available for the .NET platform. It is, however, the natural choice for programmers moving from Java. The first Java program you wrote probably resembled the classic HelloWorld program even if it was not actually called HelloWorld.java. In this chapter you will develop HelloWorld in C#—first using only the tools available in the.NET Framework Software Development Kit (SDK) and then once again using Visual Studio .NET. Although HelloWorld.cs is not exactly earth shattering, it will convince you that C# is not Java and provides an opportunity to familiarize yourself with the tools you will use to develop C# programs.
