category X : functions ;;QM does not have namespaces. category is something similar, but very different.

;C++
namespace X
{
classes, functions, variables, etc
}

;C#
namespace X
{
classes
}

This is a fantastic comparison. I am also starting to learn C#. I assume that most all comparison's to QM are very similar for C++ and C#. Is that true?
Thanks Gintaras for compiling this summary, Gintaras,
Stuart
#3
Yes, many things in C# are similar or identical as in C++.
C# examples added.
#4
you should add this "Cheat Sheet" (maybe remove C code ) to the help manual.  right after the Reference page in Help.

1 place to find all the syntax you need to memorize to be efficient with QM!!
