C# Programming Basics

Subject : it-skills
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Microsoft's generic software framework for application development.






2. 32 bit - unsigned integer data






3. 128 bit fixed precision (financial)






4. Implies that the programming language places severe restrictions on the intermixing that is permitted to occur - between objects or data of different types.






5. Statements are instructions describing how to run a programme. Statements declare the name of a variable. Statements are combined to create methods.






6. Access is limited to the current Assembly






7. System.UInt32






8. The CLR tool used for just-in-time compilation which converts IL code to CPU specific code.






9. Characteristics of an object. Something an object has. Provides a specific access point to data within a field






10. Indicates that the Method can be overridden.






11. Access is limited to the current Assembly and Derived Types






12. Sits behind GUI (Graphical User Interface) and provides event listeners






13. Just-in-time compilation






14. Runs in a command prompt window rather than a GUI (graphical User Interface) one.






15. Series of instructions which tell a computer what to do.






16. 32 bit single precision floating point data






17. The output produced by the C# Compiler - typically a .dll or .exe. Produced by a Project in Visual Studio






18. A symbol that specifies an operation to be performed on one or more variables.






19. 64 bit integer data






20. System.Int16






21. The concept of defining subclasses of data objects that share some or all of the parent's class characteristics - enabling the reuse of code.






22. Most common kind of reference type. They define objects. They must have at least one method and one field.






23. System.Single






24. Word that stores a value. Storage location that holds a value. Type and name of variable must be declared in a statement. Must be explicitly declared before use. Uses CamelCase notation.






25. An instance of a class that exists at run-time and is typically referenced via a variable name.






26. Un-orderd sequence of elements of the same type. Stores a fixed number of static elements of a particular type.






27. The "Type" name of data that is stored on the Heap






28. The process of compiling IL source into CPU-native code for execution.






29. The process of hiding and restricting access to the implementation details of a data structure.






30. Allows a class to define multiple implementations of a method based on the number and types of arguments passed (Overloading).






31. (= or += or -= or = or /=)






32. A Class that cannot be instantiated.






33. Compilation of classes. In C# Usually ends in .dll or .exe






34. true or false






35. true or false






36. The "Type" name of data that is stored on the Stack






37. A standardized (ECMA) language for creating Windows .NET applications and services and libraries - with a syntax similar to Java and C++.






38. A representation of an area in the computer memory in which a value of a particular data type can be stored.






39. 64 bit double precision floating point data






40. An abstract container used to hold a logically related group of data and functionality (e.g. System.* or System.Lynq or System.Windows etc.).






41. A type of statement that produces a value that might be tested or assigned to a variable.






42. Extra information within a method






43. Keyword which exposes members to other classes OR Identifier which makes program elements public






44. Command which runs repeatedly while (some) condition is true.






45. count = count+1 or count++ or count__. Both count variables are Unary Operators






46. 32 bit integer data






47. (&& or || or & or |)






48. Windows Presentation Foundation






49. Code which implements GUI (graphical User Interface).






50. System.UInt16
