All about LINQ operators – My Point of View

A short list of LINQ operators.

Using IN clause

This is similar to database IN keyword;

var myInClause = new string[] {"One", "Two", "Three"};

var results = from x in MyTable
              where myInClause.Contains(x.SomeColumn)
              select x;
// OR
var results = MyTable.Where(x => myInClause.Contains(x.SomeColumn));

Using ALL operator

Working with simple types

//does all numbers are greater than 10
int[] IntArray = { 11, 22, 33, 44, 55 };
var Result = IntArray.All(x => x > 10);
Console.WriteLine("Is All Numbers are greater than 10 : " + Result);

//does all names has characters greater than three
string[] stringArray = { "Khan", "Ali", "Adam", "Eve", "Joe" };
Result = stringArray.All(name => name.Length > 3);
Console.WriteLine("Is All Names are greater than 3 Characters : " + Result);

var letterResult = stringArray.All(name => name.StartsWith("A"));
Console.WriteLine("Is All Names start with letter A : " + letterResult);

//all numbers can be divided by three
int[] numbers = { 3, 6, 9, 12};
bool iSNumbersDivided = numbers.All(number => number % 3 == 0);
Console.WriteLine($"Numbers are divisible by three = {iSNumbersDivided}");

Working with complex types

//Check whether age of all animals in the zoo is greater than 1 year
bool response = animalData.All(x => x.AnimalAge > 1);
Console.WriteLine($"Is All Animals are greater than 1 years old : {response}");

//get all animas who are feed by milk
var zooSubSet = animalData.Where(x => x.Food.All(y => y.FoodType == "Milk"));
foreach(var item in zooSubSet)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Animal Name: {item.AnimalName}");
}
