| Advantages of C# |
C# uses delegates - type-safe method pointers. These are used to implement event-handling. Although it has some elements derived from Visual Basic and Java. C++ is C#’s closest relative. A striking change from C++ to C# is that, it does not require header files. All code is written inline. The .NET runtime in which C# runs performs memory management takes care of tasks like garbage collection. Because of this, the use of pointers in C# is much less important than in C++. |
