C# – is an object oriented language of programming, created in 1998–2001 by Microsoft company as a language of application development for Microsoft .NET Framework platform. It combines a strength and flexibility of C++ with a simplicity of Visual Basic. You will find the book pack below, which will help you learn this programming language.

Safe Clearing of Private Data
We often need to store private data in programs, for example passwords, secret keys, and their derivatives, and we usually need to clear their traces in the memory after using them so that a potential intruder can’t gain access to these data. In this article we will discuss why you can’t clear private data using memset() function.
The long arrow operator in C++
Sometimes, we need to create wrapper types. For example, types like unique_ptr, shared_ptr, optional and similar.
Usually, these types have an accessor member function called .get but they also provide the operator-> to support direct access to the contained value similarly to what ordinary pointers do.
Researcher Claims Samsung’s Tizen OS is Poorly Programmed; Contains 27,000 Bugs!
A researcher has claimed that Samsung’s Tizen operating system that runs on millions of Samsung products is so poorly programmed that it could contain nearly 27,000 programming errors, which could also lead to thousands of vulnerabilities.
Tizen is a Linux-based open-source operating system backed by Intel and Samsung Electronics, which has been in development since early 2012 and designed for smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, smart watches, cameras and PCs.
2038: only 21 years away
Sometimes it seems that things have gone relatively quiet on the year-2038 front. But time keeps moving forward, and the point in early 2038 when 32-bit time_t values can no longer represent times correctly is now less than 21 years away. That may seem like a long time, but the relatively long life cycle of many embedded systems means that some systems deployed today will still be in service when that deadline hits. One of the developers leading the effort to address this problem is Arnd Bergmann; at Linaro Connect 2017 he gave an update on where that work stands.

Top 10 bugs in C++ open source projects, checked in 2016
While the world is discussing the 89th Ceremony of Oscar award and charts of actors and costumes, we’ve decided to write a review article about the IT-sphere. The article is going to cover the most interesting bugs, made in open source projects in 2016. This year was remarkable for our tool, as PVS-Studio has become available on Linux OS. The errors we present are hopefully, already fixed, but every reader can see how serious are the errors made by developers.
If programming languages were “Game of Thrones” characters
People compare programming languages with almost everything. Knowing about the upcoming arrival of the new “Game of Thrones” season, we decided to imagine how programming languages looked like, if they were characters of this serial.
