C# Tutorial Videos

Question

I am starting out learning C# for Windows programming. Are there any good sites with tutorial videos? I have no programming background but I am currently learning SQL Server 2005 and was told another good thing to learn is C#.

Thanks

Answer 1

DimeCasts has the best video tutorials I've seen around.

They've got videos on a wide variety of topics and they're usually pretty quick at adding new content when new stuff comes out.

Answer 2

MSDN has a beginners section for C#:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/beginner/bb308891.aspx

And also "How Do I"s:

Answer 4

Microsoft do a learning series for developers named "Ramp up" which has dedicated sections for different topics.

I've generally found that these are better than simply watching videos as they provide the materials in different formats which are appropriate to each subject matter.

Here's an example overview of the "web development with ASP .Net" series which provides different stages of learning. Each stage contains a mixture of materials such as documents, annotated slideshows and videos. Also, they generally offer the learner an opportunity to try out their newly developed skills in a virtual lab which is prepared with the previous course materials in mind.

Hope this helps.

You can also search for free iTunes U videos - some universities upload their filmed courses, along with slides and it's great because whoever is explaining things has a live audience in front of them and stops to answer questions if something is unclear.

Found this from Georgia State University and it has short episodes with basic stuff (haven't seen them)

Answer 6

The dnrTV (stands for .NET Rocks TV) site is free and has C# tutorial videos as well as other .NET videos.

Not all are C# specific, but there is also a wealth of .NET (and other technologies) videos on Microsoft's Channel 9.

There are also other good options if you would like a commercial solution, here are a couple.

• TekPub
  • TekPub is a lot cheaper than some of the other commercial options available.
• Pluralsight
  • Pluralsight has online courses and training available ranging from beginner to expert, but are much more expensive than others.
