The new C# brings many capabilities to an already powerful language. This session will explore where C# 6 left off and C# 7 picks up, including features such as pattern matching to do advanced comparisons with values in objects, local functions for function-in-function support (which can be better than anonymous if you understand their use cases), and tuple value types. If you thought that was pretty good, there's even more. Attend this session to get a good understanding of the entire new feature set and when to use them.

You will learn:

  • About the final C# 7 feature set
  • About the new features such as tuples and what runtimes can utilize them
  • When it is optimal to use new features
