| This book is designed to help experienced programmers into the C# language. It covers all the relevant concepts of C# from a finance viewpoint.
In the preparation of this book a small standalone futures and options trading application was written to cover all of the sections of C# that are relevant to finance and the code from the application is used throughout the book to illustrate the topics covered.
The key points covered are focused on building aWindows application in a finance environment.With this in mind there are some sections of C# that have been omitted, for example it is unlikely that C# would be used to connect to exchanges thus in-depth coverage of sockets and TCP/IP package handling has not been included.
The operators, data types and controls are covered to begin with as they form the core section of programming. Object Oriented programming is dealt with in depth from a practical approach and the commonly used concepts are covered. The emphasis of the book is in applying C# to finance and thus it does not cover each topic to its full depth as there are aspects of C# rarely used in financial applications.
In addition to the Object Oriented section, ADO.NET and the simpler I/O sections that may apply to aWindows application are covered along with some basic XML as many financial applications share data using XML.
Recognising that there are large legacy systems within each financial house, written in C++, Java and mainframe, the C# projects that are likely to be undertaken will have to fit in with these systems rather than replace them. C# offers a powerful language in building robust Windows applications that leverages off the Object Oriented concepts without being too complex to manage. |
