This book covers C# programming with a practical approach. The author assumes you have no experience in programming. The book starts with the installation of the required programming environment. Then, the simplest "Hello World" program is developed step by step. In the next three chapters (Chapters 4 to 6), Windows forms (the visual part of desktop programs) and their components are studied with practical examples. Screenshots and code snippets are clearly given in the book to guide the reader. After teaching the graphical user interface (GUI) design, C# programming is covered in an organized manner in the following eight chapters (Chapters 7 to 14) with dozens of example projects. As the reader follows the development of the sample projects, he/she will learn designing user interfaces, connecting interface objects to code, developing efficient C# code and generating standalone programs. Connecting to Access databases from our C# programs for permanent data storage is explained in Chapter 15. In the last Chapter, the basics of Unity game engine are given and a simple 2D platform game is developed in Unity using C#.
