C# for C++ programmers, C# basics, C# vs. C++
summary
If you know C++, expect concrete contrasts: classes are reference types while structs are value types, so passing a class is by reference and structs copy; C# has garbage collection and IDisposable + using rather than deterministic RAII; delegates map to function pointers, properties replace trivial getters/setters, and extension methods add helpers without changing types; ref/out and nullable operators (? and ?.) enforce intent; generics resemble templates but lack partial specialization and some non-type parameters.
