About the Code

Nearly every recipe in this book contains one or more code samples. These samples are not just fragments, but rather a complete solution that takes the form of either a Windows Forms or a Console application. Most of the code samples are written within a class or structure, making it easier to use within your applications. In addition to this, any using directives are included for each recipe so that you will not have to search for which ones to include in your code.

Complete error handling is included only in critical areas, such as input parameters. This allows you to easily see what is correct input and what is not. Many recipes omit error handling. This makes the solution easier to understand by focusing on the key concepts.
