I sense that a lot of us have had trouble keeping up with the rapid growth of C# features. My guess is that most of us fell off the cliff somewhere around C# 7 (we’re up to 13/14). I have in mind to write a book that assumes you are already a C# programmer and brings you up to speed on the latest features and techniques.
Here are just a few topics I’d cover:
1. Switch Expressions
2. Pattern matching
3. Tuples
4. Records
5. Dynamic binding
I would not cover such topics as if statements, etc., nor even basic polymorphism.
The book would be as short as possible, providing hands-on examples but no fluff. Further, I wuld not show the evolution of a feature, but rather just teach the most modern version.
Would such a book be of interest to you? I’d like to get a sense of the audience before starting.
