fabric (The network of interconnected nodes consisting of servers, high-speed connections, switches, and load balancers that collectively makes up the physical underpinnings of the Windows Azure platform. Conceptually, the repetitive pattern of nodes and connections suggests a woven or fabric-like nature); struct (A compound data type that is typically used to contain a few variables that have some logical relationship. Structs can also contain methods and events. Structs do not support inheritance but they do support interfaces. A struct is a value type, while a class is a reference type); structure (A user-defined value type that, similar to a class, can contain constructors, constants, fields, methods, properties, indexers, operators, and nested types. Unlike classes, however, structures do not support inheritance) |
