Some important questions in C# and .Net

According to group discussions over C# and .Net, the following questions were marked as very important in view of the exams. It is not necessary that these are the only important questions, but it is suggested that you give good weight-age for them during preparations:

1)Explain the steps to run a C# compiler using command-line compiler and also VS.net IDE

2)Write short notes on:
a)Documentary code via XML
b)The command line debugger
c)C# processor directives
d)Solution Explorer

3)Explain the implicit & explicit interfaces in C# with examples

4)Define interfaces in C#.
How will you contrast interfaces with abstract classes?
What is the roles of explicit casting the "AS" keyword and "IS" keyword in obtaining interfaces references?
Explain with relevant code and example

5)Explain how to create an interface with multiple base interfaces

6)Write short notes on Icloneable interfaces with example

7)Breifly explain the system collection namespaces
Explain the interfaces of system.collections and the class type of system.collections

8)Breifly discuss IEnumerable and IEnumerator interfaces with example



If you feel any topic is left out among the very important ones, you can make your suggestion in the form of comments or to me, it will be reviewed and added here.

CN-2 portions for third internals

We were given two options for the third internals, Module 1 and 2 as listed below

Module 1:

1)RSVP
2)Beyond best effort: Different scenarios
3)Internet Radio
4)Scheduling and policing mechanisms
5)Video on Demand (Previously this was written as 'Voice on demand' as mentioned in the list given to me- the confusion is now sorted out)
6)RSA Algorithm
7)DES [Data Encryption Standard]

Module 2:

1)Security in Computer Networks
2)Network Management


After a general, informal discussion among class members, it was decided that we would opt for Module 1 over a popular opinion that said:
-->It included portions concerned for the first 6 questions that we would attempt during the main exam
-->Module 2 would NOT come in handy for our preperations for the main exam


This decision has been conveyed to the faculty. However, if you feel you have not been able to make your opinion count, you can contact the C.Rs, in case a considerable number of students want to opt for Module 2 , a new decision can be made.
