Entity Framework Core 5 – Pitfalls To Avoid and Ideas to Try 

.NET Core 1.1.6 is comprised of:

• .NET Core Runtime 1.1.6
• .NET Core SDK 1.1.7

 var chArray = nationalCode.ToCharArray();
var num0 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[0].ToString())*10;
var num2 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[1].ToString())*9;
var num3 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[2].ToString())*8;
var num4 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[3].ToString())*7;
var num5 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[4].ToString())*6;
var num6 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[5].ToString())*5;
var num7 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[6].ToString())*4;
var num8 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[7].ToString())*3;
var num9 = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[8].ToString())*2;
var a = Convert.ToInt32(chArray[9].ToString());

var b = (((((((num0 + num2) + num3) + num4) + num5) + num6) + num7) + num8) + num9;
var c = b%11;

return (((c < 2) && (a == c)) || ((c >= 2) && ((11 - c) == a)));

int result = 0, controlNr = (int)(input[9] - 48);
for (int i = 0; i < input.Length - 1; i++)
    result += (input[i] - 48) * (10 - i);

int remainder = result % 11;
bool isValid = controlNr == (remainder < 2 ? remainder : 11 - remainder);

JazSharp is a unit testing framework for .NET that works very similar to Jasmine:

• Tests are defined using Describe and It

• Method calls can be replaced with spies allowing you to truly isolate the code you are testing

• Full set of Assets (known as Expects) including ToHaveBeenCalledWith, ToEqual and ToContain which perform recursive comparisons 

While few data points about Microsoft engineers working in India were available, the crowdsourced data revealed they are paid far less than their Washingtonian counterparts. The typical Indian coder who filled out the spreadsheet makes less than $50,000 per year, while Americans with similar experience make $150,000 per year with up to 10 times as much
compensation in bonuses
