  Hi,

  C# is a simple, modern, object oriented, and type-safe programming language derived from C and C++. It is used on .net platform.

  So, you must understand what .net framework is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET_Framework

  And more references: http://www.aspfree.com/c/a/C-Sharp/Introducing-CSharp-and-the-NET-Framework/

  Thank you

  For the most part when we are talking about "managed" we are talking about automatic memory managment. You use "new" to create an ojbect but do not have to use delete to get rid of it. The Garbage Collection will take care of cleaning up the memory once the references to that memory have been lost.
