Beginner's Guide To Console Input In C#

Note: I recommend reading this gist in order because Examples 1-6 build on each other.

• Example 1: Getting Console Input With Console.ReadLine
  _{How to get console input.}
• Example 2: Parsing The Console Input From String To Int32
  _{How to convert the console input into a numeric value.}
• Example 3: Validating Console Input With Int32.TryParse
  _{How to validate numeric input to prevent bugs in your code.}
• [Example 4: Looping Until User Provides Valid Input](https://gist.github.com/ZacharyPatten/798ed612

Generating Unique Random Data: A Practical Example Of Algorithm Analysis

I ran across a practical example of algorithm analysis when I wrote a method that generates unique random values inside a provided range. Figured I would share it...

The code in this article was included in my https://github.com/ZacharyPatten/Towel project. Please check it out if you want to see more code like it. :)

Discussion: Static Generic Argument Expressions And Method Constraints

EDIT: I originally thought this would only work with static (non capturing) expressions, but it should work with captures too, so I crosses out "static".

Overview

I think it is possible to allow static expressions and static methods to be used as generic arguments in C#. This would allow for more optimized functional programming without having to wrap functions inside custom struct types. Here is an example:
