101 LINQ Samples: Generation Operators

Range

This sample uses Range to generate a sequence of numbers from 100 to 149 that is used to find which numbers in that range are odd and even.

     
       
 
        
public void Linq65()
 
        
 
 
        
{
 
        
 
 
        
    var numbers =
 
        
 
 
        
        from n in Enumerable.Range(100, 50)
 
        
 
 
        
        select new { Number = n, OddEven = n % 2 == 1 ? "odd" : "even" };
 
        
 
 
        
 
 
        
 
 
        
    foreach (var n in numbers)
 
        
 
 
        
    {
 
        
 
 
        
        Console.WriteLine("The number {0} is {1}.", n.Number, n.OddEven);
 
        
 
 
        
    }
 
        
 
 
        
}

Repeat

This sample uses Repeat to generate a sequence that contains the number 7 ten times.

     
       
 
        
public void Linq66()
 
        
 
 
        
{
 
        
 
 
        
    var numbers = Enumerable.Repeat(7, 10);
 
        
 
 
        
 
 
        
 
 
        
    foreach (var n in numbers)
 
        
 
 
        
    {
 
        
 
 
        
        Console.WriteLine(n);
 
        
 
 
        
    }
 
        
 
 
        
}
