First there was C. In C, 'C++' meant 'C+1', so then there was language called C++.
Some clever dick wanted a name like (C++)++ and noticed that there were 4 +s hidden in a '#' character. So C#.
Trouble is, Brits and Americans say the thing differently so they decided you must forget 'hash', 'pound', 'number' and say 'C-sharp'

Programming language developed by Microsoft whose syntax is very similar to C++, is completely object-oriented and allows fast development.
Contrary to what many believe, C# is NOT proprietary...Java is actually proprietary. However, because Microsoft still dominates its direction, it may be considered to be "semi-de facto" proprietary at this stage.
C# traded off some runtime speed for safety and quick development. More optimized compilers in the near future may reduce this speed disadvantage while retaining the advantages.
Holistically, C# is perhaps the best programming language in existence.

Abbreviation of Choice and Consequence, a feature associated with computer role playing games where the intent is to make player choices matter.
A given choice might prevent the player from experiencing a part of the game's story or world, or eventually lead to failure of a mission or quest. This is done with the intent of either increasing the simulation aspect of the game or its replayability (and, occasionally, both).
The term was allegedly coined by Obsidian Entertainment during the development of Alpha Protocol, although the feature itself was already present in older games, such as the original Fallout series or Planescape Torment (among others).

C&C #1: I chose to join FACTION A, so now FACTION B hates me and won't allow me to join them.
C&C #2: I decided not to help COMPANION1 with his personal quest, so he died in a cutscene in the final battle.

or also known as "triple c" or coricidin. not the best way to get high it contains 30 mg of dextromethorphan and 4 mg of chlorpheniramine maleate, but it has a extra active ingredient that can kill you if you overdose because if taken in large quantities the liver cannot break it down and causing poisening. so i recommend you dont trip out on the cordicidin. try Robitussin (15 mg) or a new one called Mucinex (30 mg)
"man i'm high off the c-c-c"
-"fuck that shit, that aint good do some tussin"
-OR-
"i'm trippin out on C-C-C...ahhhh my liver!!!"
