Essence versus Ceremony
Simple, Concise, Expressive
Ceremony in C# 3.0Ceremony in C# 3.0
Removing “magic values” via temporaryvariables
GenerateChart(20, true);
var processCount = 20; var copyToWord = true; GenerateChart(processCount, copyToWord);

Removing “magic values” via temporaryvariables
GenerateChart(20, true);
GenerateChart(20 /* processCount */, true /* copyToWord */);
Ceremony in C# 3.0Ceremony in C# 3.0
Optional parameters via method overloading
void GenerateChart(int processCount) { GenerateChart(processCount, false); }
void GenerateChart(int processCount, bool copyToWord) { // Do Something }

Ugly COM Interop and the ever-present “ref Missing.Value”
var word = new Word.Application(); word.Documents.Add(ref Missing.Value, ref Missing.Value, ref Missing.Value, ref Missing.Value);

Ceremony in VB 9Ceremony in VB 9
Backing fields for properties are explicit
Private m_name As String
Public Property Name() As String Get Name = m_name End Get Set (ByVal value As String) m_name = value End End Property
Ceremony in VB 9Ceremony in VB 9
Popularity of lambda-based libraries cause problems for VB developers
Sub MyMethod() LambdaCall(Function(i) TempMethod(i) End Function) End Sub
Function TempMethod(Dim param as Integer) As Nothing Console.WriteLine(param)
Return Nothing End Function
Introduction of temporary functions
“Hacks” since statement lambdas not supported
Ceremony in VB 9Ceremony in VB 9
Line continuations must be specifiedby the developer
SomeLongMethodCall(firstParam, _ secondParam, _ thirdParam, _ fourthParam, _ fifthParam)

Fixing The Type System…Fixing The Type System…
Covariance and Contravariance…
sounds complicated…
But it’s not!sort of…
Fixing The Type System…Fixing The Type System…
How are generic types “broken” today?
var sheep = new List<Sheep>(); Speak(sheep);
void Speak(IEnumerable<Animal> animals) { // Do something with Animals }
class Animal { } class Sheep : Animal { }
Not Allowed:IEnumerable<Animal> != IEnumerable<Sheep>
Break it down…Break it down…
Covariance – think “out”
Contravariance – think “in”
Fixing The Type System…Fixing The Type System…Covariance and Contravariance
Sounds complicated!
