ITC518 Principles of Programming Using C# (8)

This subject focuses on C# (C Sharp) programming principles. Students will apply advanced object-oriented programming techniques such as inheritance, polymorphism, and interfaces to develop C# applications. In addition, the subject also provides a deeper look into classes, objects, methods and graphical user interface (GUI) using C# object-oriented programming (OOP) environment. The focus of the subject is to use Microsoft's .NET Framework with C# programming principles to develop desktop applications. At the end of this subject, students will be able to design, create, analyse and debug C# programs.

No offerings have been identified for this subject in 2021.

Where differences exist between the Handbook and the SAL, the SAL should be taken as containing the correct subject offering details.
