Gain insights into fundamental and advanced C# programming concepts. Learn about conditional statements, loops, methods, arrays, classes, inheritance, interfaces, and delegates through practical challenges.

This course introduces you to fundamental programming concepts in C#, one of the most popular languages in the world. The highly interactive course begins with a simple Hello world program and proceeds on to cover common concepts such as conditional statements, loop statements, and methods in C#. It also reflects upon the idea of arrays as well as the power they give to the programmer to write better code. Finally, it dives deeper in order to teach about advanced concepts such as classes, inheritance, interfaces, and delegates in C# through interactive challenges and exercises.

C# for Programmers: A Practical Guide

## What is Casting?
*It is often important to be able to convert between different types of data*.

For example, the user may request a `double` precision value from your program, but your program stores them as `floats`. The requires a conversion method between types. This conversion is accomplished via **casting**. 

The syntax for casting is as follows:

```css
(type)name
```

Where **type** is the type to convert to, and **name** is the name of the variable to convert.
