Hey Guys,

I find that one of the best ways I learn and retain information is actually applying what I learn. I know people have asked this question countless times, here is 1+.

Do you have any suggestions for a book that guides the reader from beginning to end on how to program with C# while writing a real world application. I know the basics of C# but would like to put it to use by writing an application.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
