More mind maps which can be useful for .NET learners.
LINQ is an important topic, and understanding its concepts is crucial.
LINQ is built around IEnumerable<T> and IEnumerator<T> interfaces.
It is implemented as extension generic methods which allows us to use it
with all collection classes.
Since I’m teaching .NET 101 course again, I decided that it would be helpful to have some mind maps on the topics we cover. The first such topic is .NET collections.
This post is not a complete manual, but rather a summary on the topic.
Hi, I released a new application in Microsoft Store (available on Windows 10 devices) called “Do Did Done - Learn English Irregular Verbs”. You can download it here. Well, formally, it’s not new, but rather a drastic update to my old app “Irregular verbs trainer”.
The logic is the same, there are English irregular verbs with corresponding past simple and past participle forms grouped logically. There are also three kinds of exercises: flipping card, multiple-choice test and writing test. Based on my testing, it can really help you to learn Irregular Verbs.
But what is new?
Recently I remembered that there was a game we made with my groupmates on the 3rd year of university (5 years ago!), and, guess what, it is still in my private git repo so I cloned and built it (surprisingly successfully). Then I decided to write a post about the game because it’s not really fun to play, but, it’s fun to review the screenshots and remember how it was created.
As I said before, iOS and Android version of Piano 3D required a new UI and UX, because the Windows Store app’s design was ugly, just default gray controls from Unity 3D. Fortunately, I have a friend who agreed to help me with the visual appearance of the app. So in the summer of 2016 we started working on requirements and first wireframe prototypes.
This post is about the process of defining and discussing requirements of the new UI and the challenges we had.
