Welcome to the second in a series of articles introducing the C# programming language. In the previous issue the basics of the language such as variables, methods and classes were covered. In this issue classes are covered in more detail highlighting an important feature called inheritance.

In this second installment of our series on GUI programming with the Qt C++ toolkit, we're going to see how to create a standard GUI application, with a menu, toolbar, status bar, and a central area.

This short tutorial is intended as a simple introduction to writing GTK+ applications in C and C++, using the current 2.0/2.2 version of libgtk. It also covers the use of the Glade user interface designer for rapid application development (RAD).

This series of articles aims to introduce the Objective-C programming language to readers of C Vu, who are users of C and C++. I will try to show how the language manages to add object-oriented facilities to the low-level features of C in a way that is radically different from that of C++.

In this article I will focus on the basic features of the language, future articles will cover more advanced topics such as inheritance, interfaces and attributes. After reading this series of articles you will have a basis for determining if C# is for you.
