Visual Basic 2010 How To Program

DESCRIPTION

Visual Basic 2010 How to Program is appropriate for all basic-to-intermediate level courses in Visual Basic 2010 programming.

Created
by world-renowned programming instructors Paul and Harvey Deitel,
Visual Basic 2010 How to Program, Fifth Edition introduces all facets of
the Visual Basic 2010 language through a hands-on approach with
hundreds of working programs. This book has been thoroughly updated to
reflect the major innovations Microsoft has incorporated in Visual Basic
2010 and .NET 4.0; all discussions and sample code have been carefully
audited against the newest Visual Basic language specification. The many
new platform features covered in depth in this edition include: LINQ
data queries, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), ASP.NET Ajax and
the Microsoft Ajax Library, Silverlight-based rich Internet application
development, and creating Web services with Windows Communication
Foundation (WCF). New language features introduced in this edition:
object anonymous types, object initializers, implicitly typed local
variables and arrays, delegates, lambda expressions, and extension
methods.

Students begin by getting comfortable with the free
Visual Basic Express 2010 IDE and basic VB syntax included on the CD.
Next, they build their skills one step at a time, mastering control
structures, classes, objects, methods, variables, arrays, and the core
techniques of object-oriented programming. With this strong foundation
in place, the Deitels introduce more sophisticated techniques, including
inheritance, polymorphism, exception handling, strings, GUI's, data
structures, generics, and collections. Throughout, the authors show
developers how to make the most of Microsofts Visual Studio tools. A
series of appendices provide essential programming reference material on
topics ranging from number systems to the Visual Studio Debugger, UML 2
to Unicode and ASCII.
