LINQ OrderBy operator comes first in LINQ Sorting Operators. OrderBy operator sort the sequence (collection) based on particular property in ascending order. We can use OrderBy operator both in Query Syntax and Method Syntax. Below is the syntax of OrderBy operator. As shown in the above syntax, this operator take …

LINQ ThenBy Operator is used when we want to sort the elements in a collection by using multiple properties in ascending order. This operator must use after OrderBy or OrderByDescending operator. First OrderBy operator sort the collection based on a single property and then we can use ThenBy operator to …

LINQ OrderByDescending operator sort the elements in a sequence in descending order. You can find LINQ sorting operators list here. Below is the syntax of OrderByDescending operator. As shown in above syntax, OrderByDescending is an extension method which takes a single element and return property name on which we want …

LINQ Except operator comes under Set operators category in LINQ. LINQ Set operators is used for compare two sequences (collections) and find common, missing and unique elements. You can find entire list of set operators here. Except operator compares two sequences (collections) classes and find those elements which are not present in second …

LINQ Union operator is used for finding unique elements between two sequences (Collections). For example, suppose we have two collections A = { 1, 2, 3 }, and B = { 3, 4, 5 }. Union operator will find unique elements in both sequences. { 3 } element is available …

LINQ Intersect operator is used to find common elements between two sequences (collections). Intersect opertor comes under Set operators category in LINQ Query operators. For example, we have two collections A = { 1, 2, 3 } and B = { 3, 4, 5 }. Intersect operator will find common elements …

LINQ Distinct operator is used for removing duplicates elements from the sequence (list). Distinct operator comes under Set operators category in LINQ query operators. For example, we have one collection A = { 1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5}. In this collection 3 and 4 elements are repeated two …

LINQ All operator is used to check whether all elements in a sequence (collection) satisfy a particular condition or not. LINQ All operator comes under Quantifier Operators category in LINQ Query Operators. Lets take an example, we have a collection A = { 3, 6, 9, 12 } and we …

LINQ Any operator comes under the Quantifier Operators category in LINQ Query operators. LINQ: Any operator is used for two cases: Any operator is only available in Method syntax and not in Query Syntax. Below is the syntax of Any operator public static bool Any(this IEnumerable source);public static bool Any(this IEnumerable source, Func …

LINQ Contains operator is used to check whether an element is available in sequence (collection) or not. Contains operator comes under Quantifier Operators category in LINQ Query Operators. Below is the syntax of Contains operator. First overload takes a single parameter. Second overload function is used when we have to …
