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






3. Represents the encapsulation of data and behaviors into a single unit.






4. System.Single






5. Contains the class definitions that allow access to the functionality provided by .NET.






6. Mathematical (+ or - or / or %)






7. (< or > or <= or >=)






8. Used to display text that end user does not need to edit.






9. Symbols which transform and combine expressions






10. System.UInt32






11. 16 bit- unsigned word (U+0000 to U+ffff)






12. System.SByte






13. Allows a Method to be defined in a separate file (within the same Project). If no definition is found the compiler excludes the Method as an optimization.






14. Calculation whose result is either true or false but cannot be both E.g. == Equal to. != Not Equal too. < Less than. <= Less than of equal to. > Greater than. >= Greaten than or equal to. && AND (Conditional) ->|| OR (Conditional)






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






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






17. 32 bit integer data






18. System.Decimal






19. Something that has a different number of parameters to it's predecessor






20. (== or !=)






21. Specifies that the Method includes no implementation and must be overridden in a deriving class - where it will get its definition. Can only be part of an Abstract Class.






22. Only requires one operand usually a count+1 or a count++ or a count--






23. Variables defined by a class






24. 64 bit - unsigned integer data






25. Represents date and time data with a 100 ns resolution






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






27. 128 bit fixed precision (financial)






28. The .NET run-time environment that enables code to be compiled and executed.






29. A Class from which other classes can inherit characteristics.






30. Box which can be typed into at runtime. Can display large amounts of scrollable text for the user. To create a scrollable one in Visual Studio set the multiline property to 'TRUE' and the Scrollbars property to 'VERTICAL'.






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






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






33. System.Int32






34. 64 bit integer data






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






36. Just-in-time compilation






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






38. The lowest level or fundamental data types needed for representing data.






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






40. Command Language Runtime






41. Must have a data type






42. 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.






43. true or false






44. System.UInt64






45. 8 bit - unsigned byte (0 - 255)






46. System.Double






47. Allows the definition of a Class to span multiple files (within the same Project)






48. System.Int16






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






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