Features of the Program
.NET base classes – many of them, for
math, database access, windows
applications, web applications, etc, etc
Namespaces – named heirarchically; all
under System (e.g., Now gives current
date and time; it is in System.DateTime.)
Main method always runs first.
Variables are strongly typed: Given one
type in a declaration and keep that type
(e.g. ticks [long] must be separate from
result [double])
