Yesterday I went to Portland Code Camp 2010 in Portland, OR
(http://portlandcodecamp.org), and one of the presentations I saw there was
about new features in C# 4.0, included with Visual Studio 2010, which looks to
be coming out on May 27.  A few things Ithought were interesting:

- With version 4.0, C# supports default function parameters as in C++.  For
example:
void doSomething(int param1, int param2 = 5)
{
}
I always thought this was a useful feature in C++ and am glad to hear that C#
finally supportsthis feature.

- The keyword "dynamic": This adds language-level support which simplifies the
process of calling methods on objects loaded from an external library
(assembly) at run-time.
