Is there any one website which contains many good C# screencasts?
I like the channel 9 screencasts tagged C#..
Dimecasts.net is coming out with lots of good, short screencasts on various .NET topics. Some in the ALT.NET space. Most of the example code they write is in C#.
dnrTV
dnrTv is a fusion of a training video
and an interview show. Training videos
are typically sterile and one-way.
Let's face it, you can only take so
much. But you need to see the code! In
this format, you get the spontaneity
of an interview talk show, and the
detail of a webcast or training video.
Carl Franklin is the host of the
wildly popular mp3 talk show .NET
Rocks!, which he started recording in
August, 2002. dnrTV launched on
January 12th, 2006, the same week as
.NET Rocks! show number 159!
We see dnrTV as a natural adjunct to
.NET Rocks!, allowing more technical
topics to be explored in detail. As
always, Carl keeps the atmosphere
light and conversational, which makes
for a nice way to spend your lunch
hour!
Sorry for the delay but I think the TekPub Screencast is just great.
WindowsClient.net WPF Videos
Visual C# Developer Center
YouTube search for 'C# programming'
You should checkout Pluralsight. They have fantastic training videos and their C# Fundamentals video is their most popular.

Ok...these are not about C# as such, but if you fancy learning about NHibernate, the Summer of NHibernate vids are probably the best I've ever watched. Decent sized captures and even though they're about NHibernate I learned a thing or two about refactoring unit tests as well. I even donated because I thought they were that good. 10/10
Learn C# on YouTube: 89 C# tutorials collection. Mainly examples of how to do something with C#. Another big collection of 98 C# videos. It covers a lot of C# fundamentals.

I see a lot of ATS is available online for any company who wants to implement ATS for a nominal cost. I also see a few available as opensource.
I work in a small firm and am I come from non IT background. With my own interests have tried my hands on with some Java and C# lately.I enjoy learning programming and want to learn more. I want to design and develop an ATS for the company.We don't have one and I think it will be a great experience for me. I tried google and I found a very relevant link on same system in MS Access tutorial from MSDN Here is the link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/gg621254
At the end they say to publish on Share point.(optional) I have no clue about Sharepoint.
I wanted to know if I use any other Database instead of MS Access. In Oracle, they have forms and reports which is mainly used. Is there anything similar on MS Access so that I can have the Cost to hire employee calculator available? Any suggestions or ideas in general also will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance,
newbee
Ah, the good ol' days of where to begin. Well, here is what I can suggest and spend a weekend watching the video tutorials just becoming familiar with what you can do.

I learned Java with the help of the book 'Java how to program'. The book had lots of questions and exercises that helped me a lot.
I am now looking for a website or preferably a book that has similar programming questions/exercises that will help me learn C#/.NET and become a better programmer. Could someone suggest a book or point me to a website ?
Thanks
Edit: I should add that I am not looking for advanced stuff like Project Euler, but basic stuff
While it's specifically aimed at algorithmic programming, Project Euler can only do good things for getting well-acquainted with a language! Work through as many problems as you can, solving them in C#, and you'll have fun at the same time as learning the language.
This isn't a bad site:
http://www.fincher.org/tips/Languages/csharp.shtml
Starts off with console applications doing "Hello World" and reading files and goes on to hit a long list of important concepts including database access using Parameters.
The Sphere online Judge has a good collection of programming problems, ranging from tutorial problems to challenge problems.
If you like working through exercises, solving puzzles, etc. while learning, you'll love the Head First book on C#.
APress Pro C# 2010 and the .NET 4 Platform by Andrew Troelsen is the single best book I've read to quickly get into the language. It suggests concise relevant examples and code samples for the reader to try, and I recommend following them. It's a 1700 page book - very exhaustive and reasonably priced for the amount of content.

I want to learn .NET and I have 2 weeks time of this. I have sound knowledge of CLR, Assemblies and certain basics. I have a copy of "CLR via C#". But I need to learn advanced C# concepts like delegates, reflection, generics and so on. And then I need to quickly jump into coding. Remember, I have 2 weeks time.
I suppose a quick grasp of C# advanced concepts and then some thorough coding practice is the need of the hour.
Can you suggest me on:
1) My approach.
2) Sites or books to learn these advanced C# concepts fast.
3) Practicing the things learnt by coding....suggestion on practice/programming questions. Since I also believe one can only learn any language by practicing it.
Please pour in your suggestions.
Regards,
Justin Samuel.
Joe Albahari's book "C# in a Nutshell" (Disclaimer: I know the author, but I would recommend regardless). Joe's site has lots of useful stuff.
Jon Skeet's articles + book: "C# in Depth"
Andrew Troelsen's "Pro C# 2008 and the .NET 3.5 Platform, Fourth Edition"
Free, online material:
Microsoft webcasts and virtual labs

SO: Is there any one website which contains many good C# screencasts?
I recommend C# 2005: The Base Class Library by Francesco Balena. Its a bit of an older book, but I found it to be an amazing read. I learnt a ton with it.
I recommend you to download some open source projects from codeplex, and start debugging. You will better understand the internals this way...
Once you know most of the basics, take a look at Hidden Features of C#? to see all sorts of cool but slightly esoteric features.
Refer this link,
http://sharpertutorials.com/tutorials/
This site having hands on guides for programming areas includes
1. Introduction to C#
2. Intermediate C# Tutorials,
3. Advanced C# Tutorials
4. Object Orientation
5. Real World Object Orientated Programming
6. Testing and Debugging
7. Security and Encryption
8. Using .Net Assemblies
9. Software Engineering Principles
..........etc
In the question "List of Freely Available programming books", there's a link to the book Illustrated C# 2008. This book offers a complete intruduction for everything in C#, from the most basic things like classes and methods all the way up to delegates, anonymous types, and event handlers. The good thing? you don't spend a dime!

I want to learn C# and the .Net Framework as well.
I have no idea on the Microsoft .Net and C# framework but I once programmed on their Microsoft Visual Basic 6 with experience on making COM Components (OCX and DLL).
I have an experience programming on java and have fair knowledge of Object Oriented Technology. But I am currently confused on the number of books currently written for C#.
I want a book that will not explain me the for loop or iterative looping on one chapter but more on the language itself. I've heard that C# is a close cousin of Java so I think I just want to know the syntax.
Since I dont know C# and .Net framework< i would like a book that could focus on them.
Currently, as I have viewed from the net.
I have this list of books:
Head First C#
Illustrated C#
MS C# 2008 Step By STep
Illustrated C#
C# 3.0 in a Nutshell
Wrox Beginning C# 2008
C# in Depth
From the review in amazon, they all look good but I dont know which one of them or that is not in the list that I have would suit me.
I definitely want to learn C# so hopefully someone can help me
Pro C# 2008 and the .NET 3.5 Platform, Fourth Edition is my favorite. It takes you from the CLR basics all the way to the advanced 3.5 topics.
You can read the first few chapters now to get a good grip on the basics and then go on with the more advanced chapters when you feel ready for it.
I'm a fan of the CLR via C#, by Jeffrey Richter, a man very, very wise in C#-fu.
Also, check out our very own Jon Skeet's C# in Depth.
Both are great reads.
Effective C# and More Effective C# by Bill Wagner are worth a read.
Or Effective C# and More Effective C# if you're in the States.
C# 3.0 in a Nutshell has really helped me understand C# in depth; I recommend it for anyone.
Although I wouldn't say it's really a beginner's book per ce.

Wrox C# 2008 is excellent.
I always loved video tutorials, it just makes you use more senses than you use when reading, which makes you focus more.
you can refer to
http://channel9.msdn.com
http://www.dnrtv.com
http://windowsclient.com
http://windowsclient.net/learn/videos.aspx
http://www.asp.net/learn/
I learned with "Visual C# 2008 Step by Step" by John Sharp. (That's gotta be a pen name, right?) I found it effective.
C# in depth is a very good read and probably well worth reading even if you know C# a little.
There are lots of little gems of information that you pick up.

C# Training videos
So can anyone recommend a set of videos for learning C# preferably free ( in my experience the nonfree videos seem to lean moe towards shlock ),
I understand that some universities are now using C# as their "101" language.
Does any such university have videos in an open coursework series?
PS: I am particularly interested in university courses. These are the ones most likely to have a long term ( 3-4 months ) structured approach aka a syllabus.
I think Plural Sight has the best courses. they have a Free C# intro.
http://www.pluralsight.com/main/olt/Course.aspx?n=dotnet-csharp-tutorial
They aren't free, but every video I've seen from LearnVisualStudio.Net has been pretty good. I got a 'lifetime' membership for $90 and it's been well worth it.
Learn C# on YouTube: 89 C# tutorials collection. Mainly examples of how to do something with C#. Another big collection of 98 C# videos. It covers a lot of C# fundamentals.
I find AppDev good. There is a lot of free stuff there (although not all).
MSDN has a good amount of learning videos. Have a look here.
The videos usually target a specific subjects and have enough details for you to learn a lot from them.
Also, Microsoft makes videos for ASP.NET if you're looking to do web-based apps. Have a look here
Try Microsoft Learning Manager -
http://learning.microsoft.com/Manager/Catalog.aspx?view=free
You pay for most of the videos but there are some free introductory ones as well that are good.
Hope this helps...
these are videos by Learnvisualstudio.net provided freely by microsoft : link
