dive into linq ivan towlson mindscape

imagine there’s no sql

three worlds

three worlds… for large values of three

“queries should just ‘be there,’ like for loops” anders hejlsberg

linq language integrated query

putting the lin into linq

when syntax runs out

everything is query operators

I plan to query over ONE… MILLION… OBJECTS!

what is the meaning of x.Select(…)?

IEnumerable x; IQueryable x;

what is the meaning of x.Select(…)? IEnumerable x; Enumerable.Select(x, …) IQueryable x; Queryable.Select(x, …)

Table x; Queryable.Select(x, …)

linq to sql

linq to lightspeed

linq to wmi

thinking in linq

what is a query?

what is a query? extract, transform and load

what is a query? ‘what am i interested in’

i am interested in… drag and drop

i am interested in… a mouse down followed by mouse moves until i get a mouse up
