In .NET, your code is stored in either dynamic link libraries or EXEs and the term assembly refers to both .NET DLLs and .NET EXEs. In this course, you'll learn how to call code that is stored in another assembly. You'll explore scoping and partitioning with namespaces, how to use namespaces, as well as DLL references and how to use code from a DLL. You'll examine how to store configuration settings for your program outside of the executable using the application configuration file. In this course, you'll also learn about static methods and parameters. You'll explore how to write and call methods, an example of a static method, and how to add a static method to a program. Next, you'll examine the basics of method parameters and return values, as well as named and optional parameters. You'll also learn about overloading methods, basic control flow, looping, and how to return a value from a method. This course was originally created by Global Knowledge (GK).
