JSON

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language.

JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

JSON is built on two structures:
A collection of name/value pairs. In various languages, this is realized as an object, record, struct, dictionary, hash table, keyed list, or associative array.
An ordered list of values. In most languages, this is realized as an array, vector, list, or sequence.

Comparison between XML and JSON

JSON is smaller than XML, and faster and easier to parse.
XML is human-readable data interchange specified in a document format, while JSON is human-readable data interchange data format.
JSON is not extensible because it does not need to be. JSON is not a document markup language, so it is not necessary to define new tags or attributes to represent data in it.
JSON has the same interoperability potential as XML.
JSON is much simpler than XML. JSON has a much smaller grammar and maps more directly onto the data structures used in modern programming languages.

Building Solutions in Visual Studio – Build Vs. Rebuild

“Build Solution” and “Rebuild Solution” are the most commonly used features in Visual Studio.  As a developer you writes code, build the solution and run the application in Visual Studio.  Very often you also used “rebuild solution” , or “clean and then build solution”.  Have you ever wonder why there are different options ? When to use them?  Though many of you are familiar with the details of  these but when asked, I have seen many beginners having confusion around it.

So let’s try to simply it by asking below questions
 What is the difference between Build and Rebuild ?
 When to use which option ?
 How does clean relates , when to use it ?
One-liner Understanding…
 Build Solution – Incremental build and compiles only the files that are changed.
 Clean Solution – Deletes all compiled, intermediate files.
 Rebuild Solution – Deletes all compiled files and compiles all irrespective of changes.

Build + Clean = Rebuild

Diff b/w For Loop and ForEach Loop

	For Loop	ForEach Loop
1	For Loop Variable Always intOnly.	ForEach Loop Variable Same as Type of Values Under Array.
2	For loop Iterates a Statement or a Block of Statements Repeatedly until a Specified Expression Evaluates to False.	For-each loop is used to Iiterate through the Items in Object Collections, List Generic Collections or Array List Collections.
3	For Loops are Faster Than For Each Loop.	For Each Loop are Slower Than For Loop.
4	Need To Loop Bounds(Minimum,Maximum). Ex: int count=0; int j; for(int i=0;i<=5;i++) {    j=count+1; }	No Need To Loop Bounds Minimum or Maximum. EX: int z=0; int [] a=new int[]      {0,1,2,3,4,5};     foreach(int i in a)     {     z=z+1;     }

Debug mode and Release mode

Debug mode and Release mode are different configurations for building your .Net project. Programmers generally use the Debug mode for debugging step by step their .Net project and select the Release mode for the final build of Assembly file (.dll or .exe).

The Debug mode does not optimize the binary it produces because the relationship between source code and generated instructions is more complex. This allows breakpoints to be set accurately and allows a programmer to step through the code one line at a time. The Debug configuration of your program is compiled with full symbolic debug information which help the debugger figure out where it is in the source code.

Is Release mode is faster than Debug mode ?

The Release mode enables optimizations and generates without any debug data, so it is fully optimized. . Lots of your code could be completely removed or rewritten in Release mode. The resulting executable will most likely not match up with your written code. Because of this release mode will run faster than debug mode due to the optimizations.

What is .pdb files ?

Debug information can be generated in a .pdb (Program Database File) file depending on the compiler options that are used. A .pdb file holds debugging and project state information that allows incremental linking of a Debug configuration of your program. A Program Database File is created when you compile a VB.Net or C# program with debug mode.

In Asp.Net ?

It is important to note that Debug mode or Release mode in a web application is controlled by the web.config file, not your settings within Visual Studio.
