Overview of this book

Functional programming makes your application faster, improves performance, and increases your productivity. C# code is written at a higher level of abstraction, so that code will be closer to business requirements, abstracting away many low-level implementation details. This book bridges the language gap for C# developers by showing you how to create and consume functional constructs in C#. We also bridge the domain gap by showing how functional constructs can be applied in business scenarios. We’ll take you through lambda expressions and extension methods, and help you develop a deep understanding of the concepts and practices of LINQ and recursion in C#. By the end of the book, you will be able to write code using the best approach and will be able to perform unit testing in functional programming, changing how you write your applications and revolutionizing your projects.

Enumerating standard query operators


There are more than 50 query operators in the Enumerable class included in the System.Linq namespace. They are also known as standard query operators. Based on the function of the operators, we can divide them into several operations. Here, we are going to discuss all the query operators in LINQ provided by .NET Framework.

Filtering

Filtering is an operation that will evaluate the element of data so that only the element satisfying the condition will be selected. There are six filtering operators; they are Where, Take, Skip, TakeWhile, SkipWhile, and Distinct. As we know, we have already discussed the Where operator in our previous sample code, both in the fluent syntax and the query expression syntax, and have an idea that it will return a subset of elements satisfying a condition given by a predicate. Since we are clear enough about the Where operator, we can skip it and continue with the remaining five filtering operators.

The Take operator returns the...
