Well, C# has a nifty way to facilitate that for us.
Apart from using the keyword operator to overload default arithmetic operations, we can use it in conjunction with the implicit and explicit keywords to create new user-defined type conversions. One should already know the difference between explicit...

The builder pattern is an object construction pattern that is usually used to handle complex objects creation/initialization. A very good sign that it could be applied is when you start creating lots of constructors, or when your single constructors...
