Quick C Rules Best to Memorize
1. C is CASE SENSITIVE int i 6 int I
9 txtOutput.Text "I is " I.ToString()
"\r\n" "i is " i.ToString() Declares
two variables as 32-bit, signed integer values.
They are NOT the same variables.

3. When calling a method in C, parentheses must
be used Even if there are no parameters to pass
to the method. int i 6 int I
9 MessageBox.Show("I is " I.ToString "\n"
"i is " i.ToString()) Build error
because I.ToString is missing required () pair

A C Program is structured as Program File
F1.cs File F2.cs File Fn.cs namespace NS1
namespace NS1 namespace NSn class
C1 class C2 class C3
If there is no namespace specified, the classes
are contained in anonymous default
namespace. Namespaces may also contain structs,
interfaces, enums and delegates Namespaces may be
used in other files.

C Predefined Types

• Reference Types
• object and string
• Value Types
• integral sbyte, short, int, long,
• byte, ushort, uint and ulong
• floating point float and double
• other bool, char, decimal, datetime

Widening/Narrowing
Consider the code int i 10 long j j
i Can this cause a problem? The above
illustrates a process known as widening.
12
Widening/Narrowing
Consider the code int i long j i
Convert.ToInt32(txtInput.Text) j i Can this
cause a problem? (i.e., is there any value of i
that cannot be assigned to j without loss of
accuracy?) No. Any 32 bit, signed integer value
can be represented as a 64 bit, signed integer
value without any possibility of losing accuracy.
13
Widening/Narrowing
Consider the code int i long j j
Convert.ToInt64(txtInput.Text) i j Can this
cause a problem? (i.e., is there any value of j
that cannot be assigned to i without loss of
accuracy?) Assigning a more exact type value
such as type long to a less exact type is called
narrowing.
14
Widening/Narrowing cont.
Whenever the C compiler detects widening, it
implicitly generates the necessary code to
convert the value from the first type to the
second. int to long conversions always
work. Whenever the C compiler detects
narrowing, it will generate the build error
message Cannot implicitly convert type t1 to
t2. The second example fails with this build
error on the statement i j You must
explicitly cast the value being narrowed as
in int i long j j 10 i
(int)j txtOutput.Text i.ToString()
15
Implicit Casting
When a value would be widened, C automatically
generates the code to convert the value from the
more narrow to the wider type. This is called
Implicit Casting. You can rely on implicit
casting to convert values as shown
below double float long int short sbyte
ulong uint ushort byte
char
16
Explicit Casting
Whenever the conversion would narrow the value,
you must explicitly cast values of one type to
the desired type. int i 500 long k short
j byte n float a 6f double b 3.2D decimal
c 22.45M k (long) c j (short) a n
(byte)i txtOutput.Text "int i is "
i.ToString() "\r\n" "long k is "
k.ToString() "\r\n" "short j is "
j.ToString() "\r\n" "byte n is "
n.ToString() "\r\n" "float a is "
a.ToString() "\r\n" "double b is "
b.ToString() "\r\n" "decimal c is "
c.ToString()
17
C Operators
Arithmetic addition - subtraction multipli
cation / division modulus (remainder) These
operators are binary. (They must have two
operands.) Evaluation depends on the operand
types. If these are different, the less precise
is implicitly cast to the more precise. For
example. int ii 4 float b 3.75f b b
ii // implicitly converted to b b
(float)ii
18
Operators - Exponentiation
VB int I 2 5 assigns the value 32 to I The
C operator does not raise to a power. To
exponentiate, you can use the Math.Pow()
method int I (int)Math.Pow((double)2,
(double)5) The parameters expected by the Pow()
method should both be type double. The result
returned by the method is also double. The cast
(int) above is required. The other casts are not
required. (If you omit them, C will implicitly
cast the parameter values to type double for you.)

Try This
int i, j, k, l float a, b i 98 / 11 a
98 / 11 b 98F / 11 l 98 / 3 3 j
(int)(98/3 3F) k (int)(98F / 3
3) txtOutput.Text "i is\t" i.ToString()
"\r\na is\t" a.ToString() "\r\nb is\t"
b.ToString() "\r\nl is\t"
l.ToString() "\r\nj is\t" j.ToString()
"\r\nk is\t" k.ToString() Type
of arithmetic determined by types of operand(s).

Method Declaration Cont.
Multiple Methods can be declared with the same
name so long as each has a unique
signature. private int intMin(int a, int

b) private int intMin(int a, int b, int
c) private int intMin(int a, int b, int c, int
d) private int intMin(int a)
29
Call by value/Call by reference
By default method parameters are passed by
value private int intMin(int a, int
b) private int intMin(int a, int b, int c) If
you wish, you can pass parameters by reference as
in private int intMin(ref int a, ref int
b) private int intMin(ref int a) When passed
by reference, you must specify this when calling
the method intMin(ref int1, ref
int2) intMin(ref b) // b declared as
int b

methods of the String Class for those that can be
used to manipulate/search strings. You will be
using them.

Handling Exceptions 1
Consider the following code try checked
int i long j 3000000000 i
(int)j txtOutput.Text "i is equal to "
i.ToString() catch (Exception
ex) txtOutput.Text ex.Message "\r\n"
"\r\n" ex.ToString()
42
Statement -- return
private int intMax(int k) int j
int.MinValue foreach (int i in k) if (i gt
j) j i return j Note. The
type of the value returned MUST be the same as
the type of the method.
43
Handling Exceptions 2
try checked int i long j
3000000000 i (int)j txtOutput.Text "i
is equal to " i.ToString() catch
(OverflowException ex) txtOutput.Text
ex.Message "\r\n" "\r\n" ex.ToString() ca
tch (Exception ex) txtOutput.Text ex.Message
"\r\n" "\r\n" ex.ToString()
44
finally
Try checked long j 3000000000 int i
(int)j txtOutput.Text "i is equal to "
i.ToString() catch (OverflowException
ex) txtOutput.Text ex.Message "\r\n"
"\r\n" ex.ToString() catch (Exception
ex) txtOutput.Text ex.Message "\r\n"
"\r\n" ex.ToString() finally txtOutput.Tex
t "\r\n" "\r\n" "in the finally block"
45
Some Specific Exceptions
The following is an incomplete list of
Exceptions ArgumentOutOfRangeException Arithme
ticException DivideByZeroException IndexOutOfRan
geException InvalidCastException NullReferenceEx
ception OverflowException StackOverflowException
Yes, case does matter in entering these. And,
there are others. That's why you always want to
have as the last catch catch (Exception
ex) txtOutput.Text ex.Message "\r\n"
"\r\n" ex.ToString()
46
Statements -- throw
Of course, you can generate your own Exceptions.
For example, to catch division by zero and
eliminate the Nan and Infinity values for type
float. try float a 0 float b 0 if (b
0f) throw new DivideByZeroException()
catch (Exception ex) txtOutput.Text
ex.Message "\r\n" "\r\n" ex.ToString()
47
throw (more)
You can even create your own exceptions try fl
oat a 0 float b 0 if (b 0f)
throw new Exception("Only dummies divide by
zero!!") float c a / b txtOutput.Text
"setting c 0/0 yields " c.ToString() catc
h (Exception ex) txtOutput.Text ex.Message
"\r\n" "\r\n" ex.ToString()
48
Statements -- foreach
A Collection is a class that implements
the System.Collections.IEnumerable interface.
this means, it provides some representation of
where we are in the collection and a way to move
to the next element, if any, in the collection.
(More on interfaces later.) private void
b(string c) foreach (string x in
c) txtOutput.Text x.PadLeft(12)
"\r\n"
49
Statements -- break
The break statement can be used to exit from for,
while, do ... while and foreach loops and must be
used to exit the cases in a switch statement.
After a break statement control switches to the
statement immediately after the end of the
loop. txtOutput.Text "" for (int i 20 i gt
-1 i--) if (i lt 10) break txtOutput.
Text i.ToString().PadLeft(10) "\r\n"
50
Statement -- return
Every method should contain a return statement.
non-void methods MUST contain at least one return
statement that returns a value whose type matches
the methods. private void b(string
c) txtOutput.Clear() foreach (string x in
c) txtOutput.Text x.PadLeft(12)
"\r\n" return // technically this
statement is not needed
51
Statement -- return 2
private int intMax(int k) int j
int.MinValue foreach (int i in k) if (i gt
j) j i return j The type of
the value returned MUST be the same as the type
of the method.
52
Statements Recap
With C, you have the following executable
statements // empty statement i 42
b // assignment b() // method call if
(ib) // if switch (expr) // switch Case
in VB for (int i 0 i lt10 i) // for
initial value termination // condition
increment while (condition) // while do ...
while (condition) // do ... while No Until as
in VB try // Exception Handling throw
(expression) // Exception foreach (element in
Collection) // loop through all
elements break // exit loop or case return
expression // return

With .NET

• You have all of the namespaces, classes,
  enumerations, etc., etc. on .NET in every
  language
• C, VB, J, C
• All you have to do is put them together to do
  something useful.
