Hi guys,
How are you all? I am doing good. Anyway straight to the point. I want to make clear of some doubts that so many newbies to dotnet world are facing today.
What exactly the dotnet framework is?
The dotnet framework is
not a programming language (I want to stress the word NOT here). Because i heard from so many people saying that ' I am learning new language that is dotnet'. I am sorry if you also think the same way. Its a blunder if you say dotnet is a programming language.
Okay, we have concluded that donet is not a programming language, then what is it? Yes dotnet is a framework which includes a runtime (CLR short form for Common Language Runtime) and the base class libraries (libraries are nothing but the predefined classes and functions like header files in c and c++). DotNet framework also includes other components which we will discuss later ( you may be confused with all of them in the beginning).
