From Java to C# - A few notes

• You might instantiate a generic class like a normal array:
  List<T> mylist = new List<T>() { t1, t2, t3, ..., tn};
• LINQ - Language Integrated Query
• Queries for different DBs, XML, Generics
• Properties
• These are easy written accessors
• Futhermore an easy possiblity to convert information
• e.g. we store seconds in our time class
• you might write a property which allows you to simulate an other variable, like hours
  which still relays on the seconds.
• public string Name
{
  get { return ...; }
  set { ... = value;}
}
• Only functions noted with the keyword virtual might be overwritten.
• Override is a keyword, not an annotation
• Javas super is C#s base
• You must to append an f to your float
• float f = 3.141f
• There is a special keyword var
• var is a type which is determined at compile-time. So it can't change on run-time!
• var v = (new List<int>() {1,2,3})[0];
• v has the type int now
• You might use var in foreach
• foreach (Type t in Collection) is javas for (T t : Collection)
• All types are objects!
• There are two subtypes:
• Valuetypes
• Referencetypes
• There is not multiple inheritance.
• You implement interfaces and super classes in the same way:
• class sub : super
{
  // ...
}
• class implementation : interface
{
  // ...
}
• There a different types of lambdas:
• Action<T1, ..., Tn>(...) which maps on void
• Func<T1, ..., Tn, Tresult>(...) which maps on given type Tresult
• Futhermore there are two keywords for easy threading:
• await
• async
