Think about making a desktop and web application. Some logic will only work on the desktop and others in the browser, so we break out parts of the class into separate files and only include the correct one when compiling. Let's take a look at how this works. We're going to create a new class called house inside of a folder called map in our source directory. Now that we have the house class, we can use our namespace and begin writing out our partial class. In order to do this, we're going to use the key word partial when defining the class name.…
