Prerequisites

• Mono C# Compiler

Description

These are some exercises to better understand programming concepts in C#

1. Animal - Inheritance and polymorphism through method overriding.

2. New vs Override - Shows what happens when you forget not include the override keyword. In order to do this intentionally and avoid the warning use the new keyword

   Without the override keyword

     mono ForgotOverride.exe

   Output

     Base
     Sub
     Base

   With the override keyword

   The Name property is not merely hidden it is overridden

     mono WithOverride.exe

   Output

     Base
     Sub
     Sub

   With intention not to use the override keyword use the new keyword

   Using the new keyword gives the same result as not including the override but gets rid of the warning . It is rarely used. Output

     Base
     Sub
     Base
