 Data types and variables
Declare two variables: an integer (int) to hold a number
and a String (string) to hold a piece of text:
//Declare a variable of type int to hold medium
sized whole numbers.
int distanceInMiles;
distanceInMiles =437;
//Declare a variable to hold some text like a
first name.
string firstName;
firstName = Danish;

Or we can write like this:

int distanceInMiles =437;
string firstName = Danish;
Common Type System (CTS)
namespace
.NET C# DESCRIPTION
System.Int16 short Capable of storing whole numbers
between -32,768. Defaults to 0 .
System.Int32 int Capable of storing whole numbers
between -2,147,648 and 2,147,648.
Defaults to 0 .
System.Single float Store large numbers with decimals
between -3.402823E+38 and
3.402823E+38. Defaults to 0.0 .
System.Boolean bool Used to hold a simple boolean value: true
or false. Defaults to false.
System.Char char Holds a single character. Default to null.
System.String string Can hold text with length of up to 2
billion characters. Defaults to null.
Converting and Casting Data Types
1. Convert into a String.
For example,
the Text returned from a TextBox is a String, and so
is the SelectedValue of a DropDownList.
To get a string representation of an Object, you can call its
ToString()method.
Label1.text =
System.Datetime.Now.ToString();
Converting and Casting
Data Types
2. Convert into a Convert class.
Function to convert a number of data types into another
type.
For example,
converting a string containing a value that looks like a
boolean into a true Boolean type:
bool myBoolean1 =
Convert.ToBoolean(True);//Results in true
bool myBoolean2 =
Convert.ToBoolean(False); //Results in
false
Arrays
Defines an array:
string[] roles = new string[2];
To enter the role names into array:
roles[0]= Administrators;
roles[1]= ContentManagers;
Throw an error:
roles[2]= Members;
Index was outside the bounds of the array.
Statements: Operators
1. Assignment Operators
2. Arithmetic Operators
3. Comparison Operators
4. Concatenation Operators
5. Logical Operators
Statements: Operators
1. Assignment Operators
Eg. int age = 42;
Used to assign a value to a variable
Sources :
A constant value
Value of another variable
The result of an expression or a function
Statements: Operators
2. Arithmetic Operators
 Combine the arithmetic and assignment operators,
enabling to take the value of a variable, perform some
arithmetic operation on it, and assign the result back to
the variable.
Example:
 C# also enables to increase a variables value by using the
++ operator.
Example:

3. Comparison Operators
Statements: Operators
4. Concatenation Operators
To concatenate two strings, use the + in C#.
To combine the concatenation and assignment operator
, use += and &=
Example:
Statements: Operators
5. Logical Operators
To combine the results of multiple individual expression,
To make sure that multiple conditions are true or false.

Guess what the answer?

Making Decisions
1. if, if else and elseif constructs
if statement simple
Contains two relevant parts :
1. Condition being tested
2. Code executed when condition evaluates to true
E.g:
if (User.IsInRole(Administrators) = true)
if (User.IsInRole(Administrators))
{ {
DeleteButton.Visible
DeleteButton.Visible = true;
= true;
}
}
Making Decisions
1. if, if else and elseif constructs
if else statement
E.g:
if (User.IsInRole(Administrators))
{
DeleteButton.Visible = true;
}
else
{
DeleteButton.Visible = false;
}
Making Decisions
elseif statement more than 2 option
E.g: use 3 different roles :
Administrators create and delete content.
Content managers only create new content.
standard members cannot do anything.

To show or hide the relevant buttons, use the following

code:
Making Decisions
if (User.IsInRole(Administrators))
{
CreateNewArticleButton.Visible = true;
DeleteArticleButton.Visible = true;
}
else if (User.IsInRole(ContentManagers))
{
CreateNewArticleButton.Visible = true;
DeleteArticleButton.Visible = false;
}
else if (User.IsInRole(Members))
{
CreateNewArticleButton.Visible = false;
DeleteArticleButton.Visible = false;
}
Making Decisions
switch constructs
E.g. to calculate the discount percentage:
DateTime today = DateTime.Now;
double discountPercentage = 0;
switch (today.DayOfWeek)
{ case DayOfWeek.Monday;
discountPercentage = 40; break;
case DayOfWeek.Tuesday;
discountPercentage = 30; break;
case DayOfWeek.Wednesday;
discountPercentage = 20; break;
case DayOfWeek.Thursday;
discountPercentage = 10; break;
default:
discountPercentage = 0; break;
}
Making Decisions
2. Loops
for loop- simply repeat its code a predefined number of
time
Define exact number of iteration when set up the loop
Syntax:
for (startCondition; endCondition;step definition)
Example:
for (int loopCount=1; loopCount<=10; loopCount++)
{
Label1.Text += loopCount.ToString() + <br />;
}
Making Decisions
2. Loops
foreach loop- simply iterate over all the items in a
collection
Example:
foreach (string role in roles)
{
Label1.Text += role + <br />;
}
Making Decisions
2. Loops
while loop- able to loop while a certain condition is true
Example:
bool success = false;
int loopCount = 0;
while (!success && loopCount < 3)
{
success = SendEmailMessage();
loopCount = loopCount + 1;
}
Simple Calculator
Create a new Web Form called
CalculatorDemo.aspx in the Demos folder.
Write the script code to get an output in Design View as
shown in Figure Q1.

Figure Q1
CalculatorDemo.aspx
<title> Calculator</title>
</head>
Example
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
Value 1:
<asp:TextBox ID="valueBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:DropDownList ID="operatorDropDownList" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem value="+"> </asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="-"> </asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="*"> </asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/"> </asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
Value 2:
<asp:TextBox ID="valueBox2" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<br /><br />
<asp:Button ID ="CalculateButton" runat="server"
OnClick="calculateButton_Click" Text="Calculate" />
Result:
<asp:TextBox ID="resultTextBox" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</form>
</body>
</html>
The code behind
protected void calculateButton_Click(object resultTextBox.Text=result.ToString();
sender, EventArgs e)
}
{
else
if (valueBox1.Text.Length > 0 &&
{
valueBox2.Text.Length > 0)
resultTextBox.Text=string.Empty;
{
}
double result = 0;
}
double value1 =
Convert.ToDouble(valueBox1.Text);
double value2 =
Convert.ToDouble(valueBox2.Text);
switch (operatorDropDownList.SelectedValue)
{
case "+":
result = value1 + value2;
Programming in the

case "-":
code - .aspx.cs
result = value1 - value2;
break;
case "*":
result = value1 * value2;
break; 1 2
case "/":
result = value1 / value2;
break; The Result
