| Creating Custom Collections |
| FLWS.com.au |
| Even though the FCL offers many different collection types such as the SortedList, ArrayList, Hashtable etc., sometimes it makes sense to create your own. Creating your own, custom collection can help to make your code more self describing. |

| Creational Pattern - Builder |
| C# Corner |
| It is a pattern for step-by-step creation of a complex object so that the same construction process can create different representations is the routine in the builder pattern that also makes for finer control over the construction process. All the different builders generally inherit from an abstract builder class that declares the general functions to be used by the director to let the builder create the product in parts. |

| IEnumerable, IEnumerator, and Dictionaries |
| C#Today |
| One of the many new and useful features in C# is the ability to use foreach loops to iterate through items in an array or collection. This relies on the implementation of two interfaces from the System.Collections namespace: IEnumerable and IEnumerator. In this article, Karli Watson takes a look at exactly what goes on under the hood in foreach loops. By knowing how things work we can take advantage of the system to create novel classes, and will be better equipped to customize some of the more advanced collection classes that the .NET framework has to offer, allowing us to streamline our code by bypassing much of the overhead inherent in more verbose collection classes. |

| Modularizing Object Collections With The Collections API |
| C#Today |
| The Collections API in the .NET Framework merits close attention by all .NET developers because of the flexibility it offers for writing applications in .NET. We can use it to manage groups or collections of similar objects, standardizing the way in which groups of objects are handled by our programs. In this article, Thiru Thangarathinam takes us through a tour of all the important collection classes by showing us examples, and then goes on to show us how these collection classes can be very useful in the day-to-day work of a developer. |

| NET Diagnostics – IV, Use Environment Class To Get Your Environment |
| The Code Project |
| As the title of article says, I will be discussing use of Environment class in System namespace. I was looking for equivalents to some of very useful Win32 APIs that we use in our projects a lot. E.g. what is my OS, what is path to system folder, what is the current folder, how do I terminate a process, etc? In Win32 we have APIs like GetVersionEx, GetCurrentDirectory, GetSystemDirectory, exit, etc. to accomplish all these tasks. So where do we look in .NET SDK for all these APIs. |
