C# is a very powerful language, however, it doesn't do everything by itself.
Instead, it relies on a hiarchical set of prewritten functions that allows
developers to gain access to standard functionality provided by the host
operating system. These functions are contained in files called "Class
Libraries." Join me while we begin to explore some of the basics of class
libraries and learn how C# provides basic functionallity through Class Libraries
for developers.
