By completing this course, learners will understand, apply, and evaluate the most important features introduced in C# 7 to write cleaner, more expressive, and maintainable code. They will gain practical skills in using modern syntax enhancements, advanced language constructs, and improved asynchronous programming patterns within real-world C# applications.

This course is designed to help developers move beyond basic syntax and confidently adopt modern C# features such as inline out parameters, pattern matching, tuples, local functions, ref returns, expression-bodied members, thrown expressions, and async Main. Through structured modules and progressively complex examples, learners will see not just what the features are, but when and why to use them effectively. What makes this course unique is its feature-to-application approach—each concept is reinforced with practical demonstrations and integrated examples that reflect real production scenarios. Rather than isolated syntax lessons, learners explore how multiple C# 7 features work together to improve readability, performance, and code quality. This course is ideal for C# developers who want to modernize their coding style, prepare for advanced development roles, and write professional, future-ready .NET applications.

This module introduces the core enhancements in C# 7 that improve code readability, safety, and maintainability. Learners explore modern syntax features such as inline out parameters, pattern matching, improved switch logic, and digit separators, building a strong foundation for writing cleaner and more expressive C# code.

Frequently asked questions

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
