Best C# primer?

[sparrowhawk]

I'd like one that is pitched at experienced developer who knows OO, but is new to .NET

I have done an ASP.NET course and helped out on one project here, but felt rather overwhelmed. So my new plan is to teach myself C# during free time so that I can get onto some more jobs.

Any ideas?

BTW, I really hate the "hey, let's learn C#" books, but also equally hate the dry and dusty monotones and books that rely overly on mathematical examples rather than business examples.

thanks for any input

BOOKS! they're for girls... just dive in!!!

It's a VERY big pool!

I agree, dive in with a project and when you get stuck, just Google and you will find some code to inspire a solution.

Also: 4guysfromrolla.com has some great stuff on different parts of the .Net environment.

My first ever C# program is live!

Asks for your name, replies back with Hello name, length of name: x characters.

And it opens up a secondary window with a picture of a teddy bear on it.

What more can you possibly want?! I'm now open to C# contracting offers - please form an orderly queue! ;D
