  ✔️ CONSIDER using jagged arrays instead of multidimensional arrays.
 
- A jagged array is an array with elements that are also arrays. The arrays that make up the elements can be of different sizes, leading to less wasted space for some sets of data (for example, sparse matrix) compared to multidimensional arrays. Furthermore, the CLR optimizes index operations on jagged arrays, so they might exhibit better runtime performance in some scenarios.

 A dependency property (DP) is a regular property that stores its value in a property store instead of storing it in a type variable (field), for example.
 
- An attached dependency property is a kind of dependency property modeled as static Get and Set methods representing "properties" describing relationships between objects and their containers (for example, the position of a `Button` object on a `Panel` container).

  Although finalizers are effective in some cleanup scenarios, they have two significant drawbacks:
 
-- The finalizer is called when the GC detects that an object is eligible for collection. This happens at some undetermined period of time after the resource is not needed anymore. The delay between when the developer could or would like to release the resource and the time when the resource is actually released by the finalizer might be unacceptable in programs that acquire many scarce resources (resources that can be easily exhausted) or in cases in which resources are costly to keep in use (for example, large unmanaged memory buffers).

 - When the CLR needs to call a finalizer, it must postpone collection of the object’s memory until the next round of garbage collection (the finalizers run between collections). This means that the object’s memory (and all objects it refers to) will not be released for a longer period of time.

- The Boolean parameter `disposing` indicates whether the method was invoked from the `IDisposable.Dispose` implementation or from the finalizer. The `Dispose(bool)` implementation should check the parameter before accessing other reference objects (for example, the resource field in the preceding sample). Such objects should only be accessed when the method is called from the `IDisposable.Dispose` implementation (when the `disposing` parameter is equal to true). If the method is invoked from the finalizer (`disposing` is false), other objects should not be accessed. The reason is that objects are finalized in an unpredictable order and so they, or any of their dependencies, might already have been finalized.

  Also, this section applies to classes with a base that does not already implement the Dispose Pattern. If you are inheriting from a class that already implements the pattern, simply override the `Dispose(bool)` method to provide additional resource cleanup logic.

 ### Naming Custom Collections
 
- Collections (types that implement `IEnumerable`) are created mainly for two reasons: (1) to create a new data structure with structure-specific operations and often different performance characteristics than existing data structures (for example,  <xref:System.Collections.Generic.List%601>, <xref:System.Collections.Generic.LinkedList%601>, <xref:System.Collections.Generic.Stack%601>), and (2) to create a specialized collection for holding a specific set of items (for example,  <xref:System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection>). Data structures are most often used in the internal implementation of applications and libraries. Specialized collections are mainly to be exposed in APIs (as property and parameter types).
