Slides for the C# training I conducted for Microsoft’s customers in Ho Chi Minh city on June 9th 2011. The training covered C# 3.0, LINQ, C# 4.0 and Dynamic Binding.
Some pictures of the training
I hugely enjoyed BarCamp Saigon 2010 which took place yesterday at RMIT University. Learned a lot of things and met great people.
Below is the slidedeck I used for my session. Source code is here.
Note: This article is also posted at The Code Project. Refer to this link. There are quite interesting discussions going on there.
The .NET framework 4.0 CTP has just been released and I think it’s a good time to explore the new features of C# 4.0. In this post, I will introduce about the following features: dynamic lookup, generics covariance and contravariance support, optional and named parameters.

I compile a short list of such questions below, hopefully it maybe helpful for you as interviewees or interviewers. Read more…
What Steve Yegge considers the Next Big Language. Sound like
1. The Code is the Design
At university, most of us are taught that the development of a software should go through the following phases: requirement specification, design, construction (or coding), and testing. By gathering system requirements (e.g. from the clients, market researches etc.), analysts would come up with a bunch of functional and supplementary requirement documents, use case model and specifications during the requirement specification phase.

A nice post by Mark Dominus about design patterns. I include the post here in case the link is modified. You should also read the response by Ralph Johnson and Mark’s follow-up. Read more…
Whether checked exception is good or bad is such a big debate which is currently still not agreed upon. Do a google with the keywords “checked exception”, you’ll see a bunch of stuffs to read. I’ll do a quick summary on the key things which are usually used as arguments by the folks on the net Read more…
Lately, I’ve seen some job posts in the local newspapers which seek for senior .NET developers and senior Java developer who have at least 4 years of experience in .NET/Java, and feel a little bit dissatisfied with them. Read more…
