I will publish my implementation soon here on codeproject.
The system can convert (only by knowing the basic units and their factors) from km/h to mph or meters per seconds, or from centiliter to cubicmeter (I never got it right in math education ;))
My units of measure library will have another (currently top secret) feature, which is depending on this question (http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/403187/MSBuild-Resolve-Project-Reference-to-Assembly), maybe you can imagine what it will be.

Ok, I've reconsidered your answer, see my solution below.

Hi, thank you very much for your answer!
The idea sounds good, but I think it gets to complicated when complex units are defined (e.g. km/h or mph), which have multiple parents...
And complex types can have children, too (cubicliter, e.g.).

And what is your question?
I don't understand your problem...
Maybe "Url-Encoding" is a point which could help you.

I think you have misunderstood the concept of clients/servers (since my explanation is very short, I recommend you reading some network tutorials):
You cannot connect to a TcpClient, as a client is only a client. Use a TcpListener ( = Server), which can be bound to a port and is able to accept multiple clients (AcceptClient or something like this).
Then multiple TcpClients can connect to the same endpoint.

You shouldn't send the password via SendKeys. Not only because it will be very easy to write a Key Logger (simply watch the windows messages), but also because the password will be sent in plain text and if the browser-window looses and an editor gets the focus, everyone can read the password.
There are only some rare cases, in which this method can be useful, e.g. in a digital password safe like KeePass.
Maybe you should consider writing a browser extension.

With this you set the entry (object/)point, not the startup window.
If you change the startup object in WPF, nothing will work anymore.

What do you mean with "that should stop"?
And how these ten parts should be arranged within this circle?

If you would show your WSDL, maybe we could help...
But in principle WSDL types != C#-types, Visual Studio maps them. Structs in C# are represented as Sequences in XSD-Schema (WSDL types).

We answered in the same second ;)

I know this...
My question was not to view the value, but to view the binary representation in memory. But for that I need the address of this variable.

Where do I have to type the variable?

>> I already discovered the memory view, but it is only possible to jump to reference-types (like class-instances) by typing the variable name into the address field.

Maybe I am the best (yes, pride goes before a fall :) ), but my second solution is not...
This lambda expression is bad, as the intermediate step with "select" is an ugly hack (better: write your own sum-extension-method method which passes both index and value).

Lambda in C# is nothing more than "=>" which represents an anonymous function.
So my first solution is already a complete lambda expression.

What you wanted, is using the default LINQ (language integrated query) in connection with lambda, which is realized through extension-methods on IEnumerable<t>. For LINQ you have not to use lambda-expressions and for lambda-expressions you dont have to use LINQ.
As the most LINQ-extension-methods on IEnumerable<t> returns again IEnumerable<t> and take a Predicate (= Func<t, boolean=""> = delegate boolean (T element)) you can do some cool stuff.

If you want to learn lambda-expressions and LINQ, you should play around with them: define an array (e.g. int[]) and look what methods Intelli-Sense suggest you.

See my update. Not very nice (as it is not really sense-full), but should work.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection

You have to check for errors. If an error occur, you have to display it (and only then you can fix it).

Otherwise you get something like "expects parameter 1 to be resource", and you won't get the real error message. The solution you accepted says the same but guesses the error. Don't guess - display the error!

For SQL-Injection read the wiki-article I've linked. If you don't want to read, tell me the URL of your script and you will experience what SQL-Injection is ;)

CAUTION: Your code is vulnerable to SQL-Injection (see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection) attacts!

Hey!
Who has downvoted my answer?
Is this not that correct solution?
Or is my answer more unprecise as the question?
42 is the only answer to such a question, as the questioner himself did not know the question...

No you haven't!
Signing is nothing more than a range where the number is defined to be negative.
The internal representation for -1 is 11111111 11111111 11111111 11111111. If you had used an ulong this would be twice as 01111111 111[...]111 (very big). If you had used an long this would be exactly as big but negative.
So it does not matter whether you have signs or not (at least for the algorithm itself).
And you don't have to reconsider your algorithm!

It is saving space ;)
If you know the distribution, you can save space. Nothing else does zip or rar.
But if the distribution is uniformly (i.e. no entropy), in the sum you wont save space (so exe-files cannot be compressed really).
If the distribution is log(n) or something like that, it is more possible that smaller values occur than bigger.
So it will be more frequent that 1 byte (best case) will be written instead of 5 (worst case).
The clue is that the first bit says whether the data will be continued. If the first bit is zero, the value can be reconstructed.
So it is even possible to extend you charset (if you map chars to numbers),as you can represent any large numbers (you could append as much bytes as you want).
I think UTF-8 does something similiar.

If you want examples:
187: 00000000 00000000 0000000 10111011 -> 10000001 00111011 (saving 2 bytes)
597: 00000000 00000000 0000010 01010101 -> 10000010 01010101 (saving 2 bytes)
6: 00000000 00000000 0000000 00000110 -> 00000110 (saving 3 bytes)
- 1: 11111111 11111111 1111111 11111111 -> 11111111 11111111 11111111 11111111 01111111 (one byte lost)
And because of the leading continue-flag you can clearly read it back!
(1 at the beginning of each encoded byte means read it further, 0 means stop here)

Hi!
>> makes it incompatible

It is totally equal, that is what I claim.
The "and" will remove all bits but the last 7. The "or" will set the first (i.e. the 8th from right) to '1'. The "(byte)" will remove all bits but the last 8.
So you can leave the "and", as the "(byte)" does already the job and the or sets the first bit anyway to '1'.

That is something else.

>> then it will always require 4 bytes
That is not exactly true as you can do some tricks, if you know that value is more often smaller than bigger you can actually save some bytes...
Read my solution.

In which way this is a total different "paradigm" (assuming the use of this is not exaggerated so that the object does (or is) nothing)?
I would call it "seperation of concerns" as differnt domains can have independet properties on model-objects.
And that attached properties are totally foreign to .Net is not exactly true:
Extension Methods are in principle the same - and are very usefull when you want to avoid dependencies.
Beside this: My solution is only an alternative - it doesn't mean that I would use this in every case, but there are cases, in which this could be really helpful.

>> I'll do better to know the answers before I ask

Even worse: When you know the answer you shouldn't ask ;)

The human beeing isn't able to know all the answers, but there is some basic knowledge for each topic he should know before asking. So I recommend you reading some basic tutorials for C# or at least C.

I dont know, you have written that code...
Generally " means string, : means conditional expression in connection to ? - which both are nonsense in a for-loop...
Additionally the "" in the second line makes no sense as it is no valid expression to (it is a single string-literal).
And the ); in the third line is nonsense, too. Either you loop over one line or you enclose the code to loop over with { and }.
What do you want to do with that piece of code?

assuming x = X = amount and newAmount = X':
newAmount = amount * (1 + (Y / 100)) which is exactly the same I wrote (1 + Y / 100 = 1.02 if Y = 2)

WTF? Look here: http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/274082/Find-host-name-and-ip-address-of-computers-connect

If you are using Windows 7 (and I think Vista too) you have to enable the telnet-client or use putty ;)

Which host do you use? "google.com" (which is wrong) or "smtp.google.com" (which should work)?
