C# is a sort-of extension of C and C++ that was designed by Microsoft as part of its .NET framework, and released within the last 10 years. It is designed to be "multi-paradigm", meaning you can do functional, or object-oriented, or procedural, or whatever other kind of programming style you want in the language. (But for this project, we'll be mostly sticking with object-oriented.) The language, the development environments (IDEs), and the windowing toolkit are all closely related, and you will use them all together for this project.

Mono is the open-source framework for developing and running .NET applications in Linux. It provides all the tools we will be using for writing C# programs in this class, including a compiler, an IDE, and a windowing toolkit.
Speaking of which, the window toolkit you will use for your projects is Gtk#.
There is a very good wikibook on C# programming that may be useful to you.

How I will run your code

TBD... I am still waiting for the Mono software to be installed in the Linux environment. Should be here within a couple days.
