Well, it could probably not get any more auspicious than to start with the highly acclaimed "Hello World" statement.
As the "About Me" box rightly states, my name is Pritin Tyagaraj, and I'm doing my undergraduate course in Computer Science at SRM University, India (which, to my utter surprise, is India's best private college, according to the Times Of India ; but that's an entirely different issue).
I have always been fond of computers and programming, but have taken to it seriously only recently. At first I tried my hands at Java. Something seemed wrong. Not that Java is in any way less equipped or worse than any .NET language; it's just that I wasn't having fun with it. At times I've blamed it's recommended variable name notations, and at others, it's IDE ; neither of which make any sense at all.
Desparately looking for alternatives, I came wandering over to Microsoft's .NET . I had found my home! (Or is it my to-be office?) Something seemed right about .NET. I've always enjoyed programming for fun with .NET. It was boring in C, and something I didn't have time to try in Java, but .NET had it's way for me.
I don't always prefer studying directly from any book. I'd rather play around with a new language by myself, before even getting started at learning it formally. At first I played a lot with VB.NET, because I had heard it was easy. But then misled by popular incorrect biased opinions against VB as a choice of language, I migrated to C#.
It has not even been a year since I first got to .NET, and I haven't really had any formal training, so I obviously don't know much. I intend to use this blog to share with you what I learn ; as I learn.
So sit tight and get ready to Live and Love .NET !
