What is LINQ?

November 20th, 2007 No comments


Quite old topic but still in a sibling stage in programmer’s mind even after it passed miles.

The LINQ Project is a codename for a set of extensions to the .NET Framework that encompass language-integrated query, set, and transform operations. It extends C# and Visual Basic with native language syntax for queries and provides class libraries to take advantage of these capabilities.
