Class Description

Class Overview

The C# and VB programming languages support a number of language features specifically used to enable Language Integrated Query (LINQ). This Linq programming training class begins by detailing each of these language constructs (including extension methods and lambda expressions). Once the foundation has been laid, attendees will learn to build query expressions using LINQ query operators and the underlying LINQ object model. The remainder of the class will examine how to apply these query expressions to object containers, relational databases, XML documents, and in parallel using PLINQ.

Class Goals

  • Learn C# and VB constructs which enable LINQ.
  • Learn to create LINQ query expressions.
  • Program with LINQ to Objects.
  • Program with LINQ to Entities.
  • Program with PLINQ/TPL.
  • Program with LINQ to XML.
