I'd say another great language feature is generics. I'm not sure if C# was the language that first created this feature, but it was my first exposure to it.
I teach computer science to undergrads and write for The Renegade Coder. I'm most likely taking care of my daughter, watching the Penguins, or reading manga.

Good one! I forgot about generics. They're used all the time in Java as well when you want to specify the type of some collection (i.e. ArrayList<T>, LinkedList<T>, etc.).
I guess we kind of just take generics for granted. It would probably take me to program in a language that doesn't have generics (like VB6) to really appreciate it.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
