Use parentheses around the expression to the left of the => operator to indicate multiple parameters. delegate int ModifyInt(int input1, int input2); ModifyInt multiplyTwoInts = (x,y) => x * y; Similarly, an empty set of parentheses indicates that the function does not accept parameters. ...

Unlike an expression lambda, a statement lambda can contain multiple statements separated by semicolons. delegate void ModifyInt(int input); ModifyInt addOneAndTellMe = x => { int result = x + 1; Console.WriteLine(result); }; Note that the statements are enclosed in braces {}. ...

For null values: Nullable<int> i = null; Or: int? i = null; Or: var i = (int?)null; For non-null values: Nullable<int> i = 0; Or: int? i = 0;

int? i = null; if (i != null) { Console.WriteLine("i is not null"); } else { Console.WriteLine("i is null"); } Which is the same as: if (i.HasValue) { Console.WriteLine("i is not null"); } else { Console.WriteLine("i is null&quot...

Given following nullable int int? i = 10; In case default value is needed, you can assign one using null coalescing operator, GetValueOrDefault method or check if nullable int HasValue before assignment. int j = i ?? 0; int j = i.GetValueOrDefault(0); int j = i.HasValue ? i.Value : 0; The ...

// Connect to a target server using your ConnectionMultiplexer instance IServer server = conn.GetServer("localhost", 6379); // Write out each key in the server foreach(var key in server.Keys()) { Console.WriteLine(key); }

It is possible to use multiple nested using statements without added multiple levels of nested braces. For example: using (var input = File.OpenRead("input.txt")) { using (var output = File.OpenWrite("output.txt")) { input.CopyTo(output); } // output is ...

emails.Where(email => email.From == "John")

emails.Select(email => email.Body)

Subscription returns an IDisposable: IDisposable subscription = emails.Subscribe(email => Console.WriteLine("Email from {0} to {1}", email.From, email.To)); When you are ready to unsubscribe, simply dispose the subscription: subscription.Dispose();

emails.Subscribe(email => Console.WriteLine("Email from {0} to {1}", email.From, email.To), cancellationToken);

string helloWorld = "hello world, how is it going?"; string[] parts1 = helloWorld.Split(','); //parts1: ["hello world", " how is it going?"] string[] parts2 = helloWorld.Split(' '); //parts2: ["hello", "world,", "how", "is&qu...

string helloWorld = "Hello World!"; string world = helloWorld.Substring(6); //world = "World!" string hello = helloWorld.Substring(0,5); // hello = "Hello" Substring returns the string up from a given index, or between two indexes (both inclusive).

string HelloWorld = "Hello World"; HelloWorld.StartsWith("Hello"); // true HelloWorld.StartsWith("Foo"); // false Finding a string within a string Using the System.String.Contains you can find out if a particular string exists within a string. The method returns ...

Unlike interfaces, which can be described as contracts for implementation, abstract classes act as contracts for extension. An abstract class cannot be instantiated, it must be extended and the resulting class (or derived class) can then be instantiated. Abstract classes are used to provide generi...

Given an async method like this: Task<string> GetNameAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken) Wrap it as an IObservable<string> like this: Observable.FromAsync(cancellationToken => GetNameAsync(cancellationToken))

Given an IObservable<Offer> of offers from merchants to buy or sell some type of item at a fixed price, we can match pairs of buyers and sellers as follows: var sellers = offers.Where(offer => offer.IsSell).Select(offer => offer.Merchant); var buyers = offers.Where(offer => offer.Is...
