Intersect Operator

   
 

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class MainClass {
    public static void Main() {
        string[] presidents = {"G", "H", "a", "H", "over", "Jack"};

        foreach (string name in intersect)
            Console.WriteLine(name);

GroupJoin Operator

   
 

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class Employee {
    public int id;
    public string firstName;
    public string lastName;

    public static ArrayList GetEmployeesArrayList() {
        ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
        al.Add(new Employee { id = 1, firstName = "J", lastName = "R" });

             });

        foreach (var item in employeeOptions)
            Console.WriteLine(item);
    }
}

    


Query by position

   
 
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Linq;
using System.Reflection;

class Person {
    int _id;
    int _idRole;
    string _lastName;
    string _firstName;

    public int ID {
        get { return _id; }
        set { _id = value; }
    }

    public int IDRole {
        get { return _idRole; }
        set { _idRole = value; }
    }

    public string LastName {
        get { return _lastName; }
        set { _lastName = value; }
    }

    public string FirstName {
        get { return _firstName; }
        set { _firstName = value; }
    }
}
class Program {
    static void Main(string[] args) {
        List<Person> people = new List<Person> {
               new Person { ID = 1, IDRole = 1, LastName = "A", FirstName = "B"},
               new Person { ID = 2, IDRole = 2, LastName = "G", FirstName = "T"},
               new Person { ID = 3, IDRole = 2, LastName = "G", FirstName = "M"},
               new Person { ID = 4, IDRole = 3, LastName = "C", FirstName = "G"}
            };
        var query = people.Select((p, index) => new { Position = index, p.FirstName, p.LastName });
    }
}

    


Use an indexed Where clause (where the length of the number's name is shorter than its value)

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

public class MainClass {
public static void Main() {

string[] digits = { “zero”, “one”, “two”, “three”, “four”, “five”, “six”, “seven”, “eight”, “nine” };

var shortDigits = digits.Where((digit, index) => digit.Length < index); foreach (var d in shortDigits) { Console.WriteLine("The word {0} is shorter than its value.", d); } } } [/csharp]

Select – Indexed: prints the value of the integer and whether it matches its index in the array

   
 
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

public class MainClass {
    public static void Main() {

        int[] numbers = { 5, 4, 1, 3, 9};

        var numsInPlace = numbers.Select((num, index) => new { Num = num, InPlace = (num == index) });

        foreach (var n in numsInPlace) {
            Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", n.Num, n.InPlace);
        }
    }
}
