In C#, the in parameter modifier is relatively a recent addition. It added in C# 7.2. The main point of in keyword is to pass a large value type to a method without copying the entire structure. Value types in C# are typically passed by value. This means that the entire thing is duplicated and
The title could have also been “Don’t use unsafe code at all!” You will come to the same conclusion after reading this post, but still I gave a room for its usage. In C#, the usage of unsafe code is a topic of debate. On one side, it offers the potential for performance gains in
The readonly modifier in C# is a keyword applied to fields that should not change after the constructor for an object has completed. Using readonly indicates that the data is intended to be immutable. This means that it cannot be changed once set. readonly can be particularly useful when you want to create an object
In C#, when you want to go through all the items in an array one by one, you can use either a for loop or a foreach loop. Both will get the job done, but there’s a bit of a difference in how they do it, especially when it comes to performance. The for loop
Span<T> in C# is an innovative feature that revolutionizes how developers work with contiguous memory regions, like arrays or memory blocks. The Span is introduced in C# 7.2 and it is designed to provide a more efficient way to handle slices of data. Technically, Span<T> is a ref struct that represents a contiguous region of
Micro-optimizing refers to making small modifications to code in an attempt to improve performance, often at the expense of making the code harder to read, understand, and maintain. While it’s natural for developers to want their applications to run as efficiently as possible, it is also crucial to balance these optimizations with the overall clarity
Recursive functions are a staple in many programmers’ toolkits. They allow us to solve complex problems by having a function call itself with a different set of parameters until a certain condition is met, known as the base case. This is an elegant way to process data structures like trees or to perform repeated operations
In C#, it’s common to sprinkle your code with debugging information—like console logs that help you track down bugs. However, when you’re ready to release your application to the world, you don’t want all that extra debug code to slow things down. This is where the Conditional attribute comes into play. The Conditional attribute allows
