Introduction to Programming Tutorials

I decided I would enjoy writing some introduction to programming in C# tutorials for anybody interested in learning to program in C#.

First off, you will need an IDE such as Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition.

Right now I don't plan to make this a halo based tutorial, later on if I keep enjoying writing these, I might once they get to that level. I am going to make an outline of the tutorials I have in mind to write, and then once I write them, provide a link to them on this page. If you have any suggestions for tutorials, I will take those into consideration if I feel I understand it enough to write a tutorial on it.

Would be much appreciated, I decided to switch from Basic to C# (With David's help) a while ago but school got in my way of experimenting... That and Visual C# Express Edition makes no sense to me.

That's how everyone looks at it the first time. Then, once you do some research, you find out it's really not as complicated as it seems.

When I first started, I thought it was pretty simple... I eventually became annoyed with the Express Edition's lack of third party compatible plugins so now I use Visual Studio. :)

Component packs, code helpers/optimizers/correctors, etc.

What do you mean by component packs, I know that you can't use the others with EE.

Since when can you not add a reference to a dll with express edition? I have always been able to do that.

I can't seem to find it, but there was one that stated that it wasn't compatible with the Express Editions.

I've used DotNetBar for Express Edition. It would be nice to try out something like ReSharper though, I wish that would work with EE.

I love ReSharper... So much. Along with CodeSMART. :)
