Developers can be caught out by the fact that type inference doesn't work for constructors: class Tuple<T1,T2> { public Tuple(T1 value1, T2 value2) { } } var x = new Tuple(2, "two"); // This WON'T work... var y = new Tuple<int, string>(2, "t...

Typically lambdas are used for defining simple functions (generally in the context of a linq expression): var incremented = myEnumerable.Select(x => x + 1); Here the return is implicit. However, it is also possible to pass actions as lambdas: myObservable.Do(x => Console.WriteLine(x)); ...

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 ...

The left-hand operand must be nullable, while the right-hand operand may or may not be. The result will be typed accordingly. Non-nullable int? a = null; int b = 3; var output = a ?? b; var type = output.GetType(); Console.WriteLine($"Output Type :{type}"); Console.WriteLine($&q...

Explicit interface implementation is necessary when you implement multiple interfaces who define a common method, but different implementations are required depending on which interface is being used to call the method (note that you don't need explicit implementations if multiple interfaces share t...

// 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); }

Select allows you to apply a transformation to every element in any data structure implementing IEnumerable. Getting the first character of each string in the following list: List<String> trees = new List<String>{ "Oak", "Birch", "Beech", "Elm", ...

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.Trim() string x = " Hello World! "; string y = x.Trim(); // "Hello World!" string q = "{(Hi!*"; string r = q.Trim( '(', '*', '{' ); // "Hi!" String.TrimStart() and String.TrimEnd() string q = "{(Hi*"; string r = q.TrimStart( '{...

Use the String.Format() method to replace one or more items in the string with the string representation of a specified object: String.Format("Hello {0} Foo {1}", "World", "Bar") //Hello World Foo Bar

All six methods return a single value of the sequence type, and can be called with or without a predicate. Depending on the number of elements that match the predicate or, if no predicate is supplied, the number of elements in the source sequence, they behave as follows: First() Returns the fir...

var sequenceOfSequences = new [] { new [] { 1, 2, 3 }, new [] { 4, 5 }, new [] { 6 } }; var sequence = sequenceOfSequences.SelectMany(x => x); // returns { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 } Use SelectMany() if you have, or you are creating a sequence of sequences, but you want the result as one long sequen...

This code will subscribe to the emails observable twice: emails.Where(email => email.From == "John").Subscribe(email => Console.WriteLine("A")); emails.Where(email => email.From == "Mary").Subscribe(email => Console.WriteLine("B")); To share a...
