Instructions

  1. Print this webpage. If you can, set your printer to Grayscale for faster printing.
  2. Fold each page down the middle along the solid vertical line.
  3. Cut along the dotted horizontal lines.
  4. Optional: Use tape, glue, or staples to hold the two sides of each flashcard together.

This will print 4 pages (5 terms/page). This box will be automatically hidden when printing. Return to Set Page

abstractUse to modify a method or property declaration to indicate that the method or property does not contain implementation.
asThis operator is used to perform conversions between compatible types.
baseThis keyword is used to access members of the base class from within a derived class.
boolThis keyword is an alias of System.Boolean.
breakThis statement terminates the closest enclosing loop or switch statement in which it appears. Control is passed to the statement that follows the terminated statement, if any.
byteThis keyword denotes an integral type that stores values as unsigned 8-bit integers in the range 0-255.
caseThe switch statement is a control statement that handles multiple selections by passing control to one of these statements within its body.
catchThe try-? statement consists of a try block followed by one or more of these clauses, which specify handlers for different exceptions.
charThis keyword is used to declare a Unicode character in the range U+0000 to U+ffff. Unicode characters are 16-bit characters used to represent most of the known written languages throughout the world.
checkedThis keyword is used to control the overflow-checking context for integral-type arithmetic operations and conversions.
classClasses are declared using this keyword.
constThis keyword is used to modify a declaration of a field or local variable. It specifies that the value of the field or the local variable cannot be modified.
continueThis statement passes control to the next iteration of the enclosing iteration statement in which it appears.
decimalThis keyword denotes a 128-bit data type. Compared to floating-point types, this type has a greater precision and a smaller range, which makes it suitable for financial and monetary calculations.
defaultThe switch statement is a control statement that handles multiple selections by passing control to one of the case statements within its body. If expression does not match any constant-expression, control is transferred to the statement(s) that follow the optional default label.
delegateThis declaration defines a reference type that can be used to encapsulate a method with a specific signature.
doThis statement executes a statement or a block of statements repeatedly until a specified expression evaluates to false.
doubleThis keyword denotes a simple type that stores 64-bit floating-point values.
enumThis keyword is used to declare an enumeration, a distinct type consisting of a set of named constants called the enumerator list. Every enumeration type has an underlying type, which can be any integral type except char.
