Beginning C#

Well, I've decided to learn C#. Are there any good, free quality resources
out there for a newbie? I've noticed there are som for Vb.net on the
Microsoft site. Anything similar for C#?

Andy,
after 4 or 5 posts on pretty much the same topic, I'd suggest you start
googling for
"C# Tutorial". I get over 48,000 results...

Hi Andy

You can get a lot of the information on C# from the sample chapters
available. A lot of these (74 chapters) are available in my C# ebook page,
(in signature).
I also have a small tutorial available on my site

Hope this helps

A man after my own heart! I've been telling people that for years! Finally
someone agrees with me! :)

well... there are bugs in the documentation :D but i can certainly say
that for a start IT IS ALL YOU NEED :) it's just great.

I should add that Google is my home page!

Other than that, though, I buy a book about once a year.

Ah, thanks. I didn't know you were referring to the actual SDK. I
thought maybe you could get the documentation separately, since the SDK
isn't needed with the VS IDE. But I suppose it doesn't hurt to have it,
either!
Nov 17 '05 #11
if you've got sdk from vs ide you also got the documentation. it should
be installed on your system. mine is accesible from
start->programs->Microsoft .NET Framework SDK v1.1
