Gone are the days of verbose C# code and having only one way to solve a problem. In recent updates, C# has been adapting ideas from other programming paradigms, including functional programming. Some of the most recent ones have significantly changed the appearance of C# code. We'll see what you think after this session!

Whether you're using C# every day, or you haven't looked at the language in a while, this fast-paced session will show you what has been changing in the C# world.

Unlike the classic "coming soon" session where you can't take what you learn home and apply it, you can take what you learn here back home to remove redundant code, streamline your classes, and add flexible type constraints. This is a fun, fast-paced session that will provide you with the insight you need to make the changes you want in your code.

This is a variation on the classic, "what
s new" style talk. I've done this style and that style in the past. I try not to pin-down specifics in the description when submitting the session, because I like to have some "check this out" info at the end, showing what gets released between now and the session. I prefer to update the abstract shortly before anything gets printed with any extra details.
