C# Syntax Shortcuts

Question

I was wondering if there exists somewhere a collection or list of C# syntax shortcuts. Things as simple omitting the curly braces on `if` statements all the way up to things like the `??` coalesce operator.

Accepted Answer

```
a = b ? c : d ;
```

is short for

```
if (b) a = c; else a = d;
```

And

```
int MyProp{get;set;}
```

is short for

```
int myVar;
int MyProp{get {return myVar; } set{myVar=value;}}
```

Also see the code templates in visual studio which allows you to speed coding up.

But note that short code doesn't mean necessarily good code.
