I am a long time experienced Windows Forms developer, but now it's time to move to WPF because a new WPF project is comming soon to me and I have only a short lead time to prepare myself to learn WPF.
What is the best way for a experienced Winforms devleoper?
Can you give me some hints and recommendations to learn WPF in a very short time!
Are there simple sample WPF solutions and short (video) tutorials? Which books do you recommend? Is www.windowsclient.net a good starting point? Are there alternatives to the official Microsoft site?
Thanks in advance for your help!
I like this tutorial:
http://reedcopsey.com/series/windows-forms-to-mvvm/
Also, dont be afraid about forgeting what you learned. WPF was designed as totaly different technology than WinForms. So in some aspects it results in completly different techniques to reach your goal.
A really well done book is http://www.amazon.com/WPF-4-Unleashed-ebook/dp/B003UBAYXE
There has been much debate on Charles Petzold's book "Applications = code + markup" but I still value it.

The title basically says it all. What programs should I download to start developing in C#? I already have Atom installed it that helps.
Thanks in advance!
Visual Studio if a natural choice if you can, because a lot of businesses use that tool for development, and I'm assuming you want to learn it from a career perspective. However, Microsoft came out with VS Express (https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/express/) as a means to get a free version of the tool with limited functionality. It can work for you and be a good place to start, or look at a tool like VS Code. That is a nice tool that works a lot differently from Visual Studio, but has a lot of functionality and capabilities.
Sometimes, when you are getting started, you just have to pick an option and go with it; a lot of what you will learn will carry over and there are a lot of good online resources.

I want to build apps using Xamarin in C#. But unfortunately I don't know C#. I have tried looking around on Google but nothing really helpful comes along. If anyone uses Xamarin to make C# apps can you please tell me where you learn it. Thank you.
Microsoft Virtaul Academy(MVA) is a great place to learn new stuffs

It's pretty much all in the title: what library would you recommend to perform principal component analysis? I'm looking for free and simple to use - performance is not necessarily a criterion so far as I just want to play around with the concept and see what I get. Google got me this:
http://crsouza.blogspot.com/2009/09/principal-component-analysis-in-c.html
Anyone tried this? How good is it? Would you have any other recommendation?
I have used PCA in SPSS and Matlab. This is a good place to start learning it, as those applications have already got all the infrastructure ready for you (like lots of plots and supportive tests).
If you are looking for something in C#, take a look at the Accord framework and maybe this sample here
Thanks for the help guys. I eventually decided to implement the algorithm myself, using Math.Net Numerics to lay the matrix groundwork and ARPACK to do the hard work of finding the biggest eigenvectors of the correlation matrix (I don't need of all them). Subject closed.

Can anyone recommend a good and light framework for
mvvm development on windows phone 7? a list of pros and cons would be useful.
Jounce: http://jounce.codeplex.com/
More guidance really this - but I found it useful. It has some really useful debugging and logging elements to it, which makes working with MEF easier especially when it goes wrong.
MVVM Light: http://www.galasoft.ch/mvvm/
I've used MVVM light - its messaging is very simple and easy to use.
UltralightMVVM: http://ultralightmvvm.codeplex.com/
This question may also help you: Windows Phone 7 Silverlight MVVM (and other) frameworks
There is also Caliburn Micro - using it it's easier to create ViewModel first and View after. It's created more for software developer then a designer.

Here are some articles to get you started:
Introduction to Multithreading in C# - provides a good overall introduction to threading.
Safe, Simple Multithreading in Windows - this is an excellent series of articles for learning about threading of Windows UI's. You may also want to read Safe, Even Simpler Multithreading in Windows Forms 2.0 to read about BackgroundWorker.
I would recommend Jefferey Richter's articles on threading Power Threading
