Hey! my comment!

C# is so easy.
I choose C# for school project and have not met any difficulties so far. Why is it created itself easy for use when time goes by ?

Challenge me! I am going to defy it!

Yeah,

As you can see, this forum contains a lot of posts with C# questions, so looks like it is not so easy as you think it is.

I work with C# every day, and still I need to google some stuff or ask a question here.

Further, C# has some many possibilties, which is impossible to learn just for one school project. So if you need to create a bit more complicated project than you probably are now doing, difficulties will come by it self

Learning languages is not hard, don't get overly excited. Solving problems is difficult, the language is just a tool.

I agree with @BigEd781. C# by itself is **** easy but all the classes in the framework and how they work together and how one can use them etc. is the tricky part.

c# is so easy because all the hard work has been done for you and wrapped up in a nice framework

I challenge you to get outside the microsoft bubble(.net). try assembly, c or c++ and I am sure you find out how different programming becomes.

I challenge you to cure blindness and cancer with C#. Good luck.


You may want to google this one...

Not too interested in the language wars. Why pick a language because it's hard?

Besides, the language is only the tip of the iceberg. To become a productive programmer, you need to learn all aspects: from the development environment, to interacting with the OS (underlying api's/frameworks), to debugging and so on.

To me, programming in general is like a journey and I like to stay on the cutting edge. In the 15 years that I've been doing this, I've tried to push to gain new technologies/languages. Went through the C++ times with Win32 and MFC, and then on to COM programming with ATL. Lots to learn overall with the Windows api's, printing, network, memory management, the registry, etc. Been there, done that.

Now it's coding in WPF, WCF, and WF in C#. Another journey. The tools and environment are way better now. The frameworks allow you to build more complex, feature rich apps/systems with more reliability and less effort. YMMV.

he wanted to defy something.. might as well give him something to defy
It's not a language war. It just shows different aspects of what computing is all about . from low level to high level. He is trying to defy a high level language, but how simple is that? You buy a book as a reference manual. Done
