Adaptive Code via C#

Your process may be agile, but are you building agility directly into the code base? This book teaches .NET programmers how to give code the flexibility to adapt to changing requirements and customer demands by applying cutting-edge techniques, including SOLID principles, design patterns, and other industry best practices.

• Understand why composition is preferable to inheritance and how flexible the interface really can be
• Gain deep knowledge of key design patterns and anti-patterns, when to apply them, and how to give their code agility
• Bridge the gap between the theory behind SOLID principles, design patterns, and industry best practices by pragmatically solving real-world problems
• Get code samples written in upcoming version of Microsoft Visual C#
• Topics include: Agile with Scrum process; dependencies and layering; the interface; patterns and anti-patterns; introduction to SOLID principles, including open/closed and dependency interjection; and using application templates
