As you’re probably aware of already, LINQ comes in two flavours – using Lambda expressions and using SQL-like query expressions: Both yields the same result because query expressions are translated into their lambda expressions before they’re compiled. So performance-wise, there’s no difference whatsoever between the two. Which one you should use is mostly personal preference, …
As I was learning functional programming with F# I came across the List.reduce function which iterates through a list and builds up an accumulator value by running another function against each element in the list. Back to the more familiar C# territory, LINQ has introduced some functional features to C# and one of these is …
Functional programming with Linq – IEnumerable
Ever run into a situation where your application needs to use a type for its internal working but occasionally need to convert that type into another just so it can be passed to another application which doesn’t understand some of the base types we have in the .Net space? Consider the example below, where the …
In Linq To Objects, there are two ways you can join two sequences together, using either Concat() or Union(), and as I was wondering how the two differs I came across this post: http://weblogs.asp.net/fbouma/archive/2009/03/04/choose-concat-over-union-if-possible.aspx The main thing to take away from this article is: “If you care about the duplicates, Union() is necessary. However, in …
I did some performance optimization work a little while back, and one of the changes which yielded a significant result was when I migrated some server side components (which are CPU intensive and performs a large number of loops) from using ADO.NET DataSets to using POCOs (plain old CLR object). The looping was then done …
