Rx

Essentially Rx is built upon the foundations of the Observer pattern. .NET already exposes some other ways to implement the Observer pattern such as multicast delegates or events (which are usually multicast delegates). Multicast delegates are not ideal however as they exhibit the following less desirable features;

In C#, events have a curious interface. Some find the += and -= operators an unnatural way to register a callback

Events are difficult to compose

Events don't offer the ability to be easily queried over time

Events are a common cause of accidental memory leaks

Events do not have a standard pattern for signaling completion

Events provide almost no help for concurrency or multithreaded applications. e.g. To raise an event on a separate thread requires you to do all of the plumbing

Rx looks to solve these problems. Here I will introduce you to the building blocks and some basic types that make up Rx.
