Starting from quick exploration on the environment of visual studio 2015, the lecture will talk about the overall program structure and syntax associated with it: This will help build up the following topics:

• Data types and type conversion , (Day 1)
  • List of data types in C#: this section will talk about on how to use different data types like int, float, double, bool and etc with their corresponding use.
  • Type conversion in C#: Converting one data type to another and the essence of doing that will be discussed
• Variables, constants and operators, (Day 1)
  • Variables: this section deeply talks about what variables are in relation to computer architectural memory address allocation.
  • Constants: talks about what constants are and when to use them in programming.
  • Operators: this section lists all the operators the C# language has with their corresponding usage.
