Advanced C# Programming Techniques

• Understand the purpose and application of attributes and events in C#.
• Demonstrate the use of BitArray collection and structures to optimize data storage and manipulation.
• Apply unsafe code concepts and understand their use in performance-critical applications.
• Develop interfaces and synchronize operations using advanced techniques in multithreading.
• Implement serialization methods to convert objects to a stream of bytes and explore enum handling.
• Handle files and use regular expressions for pattern matching and data validation.
• Utilize reflection techniques to inspect and interact with C# types dynamically.
• Work with nullable types to handle optional or missing data in C# applications.
• Apply exception handling techniques to manage errors and enhance program reliability.
• Design and implement web services and design patterns for scalable software solutions.

• Define attributes and events in C# and apply them to create more flexible and dynamic applications.
• Implement BitArray collection to efficiently manage and manipulate bit-level data.
• Write unsafe code for performance optimization in memory-sensitive applications.
• Design interfaces and synchronize tasks in multithreading scenarios to improve application responsiveness.
• Implement serialization techniques and work with enums for data persistence and management.
• Apply regular expressions to handle file input/output and validate data within files.
• Inspect types and metadata using reflection for runtime code analysis and dynamic behavior.
• Manage null values in your applications by utilizing nullable types, ensuring robust data handling.
• Create efficient error-handling mechanisms using advanced exception handling techniques.
• Implement web services and apply design patterns to create modular, maintainable, and scalable applications.

The academic approach of the course focuses on ‘work-centric’ education. With this hands-on approach, derive knowledge from and while working to make it more wholesome, delightful and useful. The ultimate objective is to empower learners to also engage in socially useful and productive work. It aims at bringing learners closer to their rewarding careers as well as to the development of the community.

• Step 1: Learners are given an overview of the course and its connection to life and work
• Step 2: Learners are exposed to the specific tool(s) used in the course through the various real-life applications of the tool(s).
• Step 3: Learners are acquainted with the careers and the hierarchy of roles they can perform at workplaces after attaining increasing levels of mastery over the tool(s).
• Step 4: Learners are acquainted with the architecture of the tool or tool map so as to appreciate various parts of the tool, their functions, utility and inter-relations.
• Step 5: Learners are exposed to simple application development methodology by using the tool at the beginner’s level.
• Step 6: Learners perform the differential skills related to the use of the tool to improve the given ready-made industry-standard outputs.
• Step 7: Learners are engaged in appreciation of real-life case studies developed by the experts.
• Step 8: Learners are encouraged to proceed from appreciation to imitation of the experts.
• Step 9: After the imitation experience, they are required to improve the expert’s outputs so that they proceed from mere imitation to emulation.
• Step 10: Emulation is taken a level further from working with differential skills towards the visualization and creation of a complete output according to the requirements provided. (Long Assignments)
• Step 11: Understanding the requirements, communicating one’s own thoughts and presenting are important skills required in facing an interview for securing a work order/job. For instilling these skills, learners are presented with various subject-specific technical as well as HR-oriented questions and encouraged to answer them.
• Step 12: Finally, they develop the integral skills involving optimal methods and best practices to produce useful outputs right from scratch, publish them in their ePortfolio and thereby proceed from emulation to self-expression, from self-expression to self-confidence and from self-confidence to self-reliance and self-esteem!
