For those times when you need to check for a null and return a string if it is null there's the null coalescing operator ??

string myStr = "The variable is:" + (x ?? "null");

oo, I'll have to remember that
I've only been learning c# for a few weeks (I didn't like VB, and C#'s 'VB-feel' put me off), but I can see this will cut out a lot of pointless

if (myVariable == null)
	do stuff;
else 
	do otherStuff;

EDIT: Bah, need to use code tags for my indentation to show v_v
EDIT2: As a veteran C++ coder, I can't help reading a simple if-else in C# without wanting to stick a load of curly braces in ^.^
EDIT3:

if (myVariable == 0) {
	do stuff;
  }
  else {
   do otherStuff;
  }

EDIT4: I know I should have used 'count', or 'ptr', but I was keeping inline with the C# example >8(
EDIT5: Ok, no more coffee for me....
