Overview

When you need answers about using C# 8.0, this tightly focused and practical book tells you exactly what you need to know without long intros or bloated samples. Easy to browse, C# 8.0 Pocket Reference is ideal as a quick source of information or as a guide to get you rapidly up to speed if you already know Java, C++, or an earlier C# version.

  • C# fundamentals and features new to C# 8.0
  • Advanced topics like operator overloading, type constraints, iterators, nullable types, operator lifting, lambda expressions, and closures
