CHAPTER 3: C# .NET: Conditional Logic
We'll use Conditional Logic to complete the calculator. You will then be able to use it to divide, subtract, and multiply. So make sure you save the work you've done so far!
CHAPTER 4: C# .NET: Loops
CHAPTER 5: C# .NET: Add Menus to your Forms
CHAPTER 6: C# .NET: Debugging your Applications
Debugging refers to the process of trying to track down errors in your programmes. It can also refer to handling potential errors that may occur. There are three types of errors that we'll take a look at:
Design-time errors
Run-Time errors
Logical errors
The longer your code gets, the harder it is to track down why things are not working. By the end of this section, you should have a good idea of where to start looking for problems. But bear in mind that debugging can be an art in itself, and it gets easier with practice.
CHAPTER 7: C# .NET: Methods
CHAPTER 8: C# .NET: String Manipulation
Quite often, strings of text need manipulating. Data from a textbox need to be tested and checked for things like blank strings, capital letters, extra spaces, incorrect formats, and a whole lots more besides. Data from text files often needs to be chopped and parsed before doing something with it, and the information your get from and put into databases routinely needs to be examined and worked on. All of this comes under the general heading of String Manipulation.
Later in this section, you're going to be creating your very own Hangman programme. The programme will make use of string manipulation techniques. Let's go through a few of the things that will help you deal with strings of text.
CHAPTER 9: C# .NET: Events
In programming terms, an Event is when something special happens. Inbuilt code gets activated when the event happens. The event is then said to be "Handled". The Events that we'll discuss in this section are called GUI Events (GUI stand for Graphic User Interface). They are things like clicking a mouse button, leaving a text box, right clicking, and many more. We'll start with the Click event of buttons.
