In a previous post about guidelines for programming in C#2.0, I had written about how I did not understand one of the guidelines of using "ForEach via an Anonymous method predicate".
Well now I know. And I illustrate with some examples below. These examples show the use of the ForEach as well as the use of Anonymous methods.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
//A test class to insert into a List
public class TestClass
{
string _string;
int _number;
public TestClass(int num, string s)
{ _string = s; _number = num;}
public int Number { get{ return _number;}}
public string String{ get {return _string;}}
}
public class MyClass
{
public static void Main()
{
//Finding Even Integers in List;
List<int> integers = new List<int>();
for(int i=1; i<=10; i++) integers.Add(i);
//find even numbers using anonymous methods
List<int> even = integers.FindAll(delegate(int i)
{
return i%2==0;
});
WL("Even Numbers");
//Here is an example of using ForEach - and the Anonymous methods
//The one thing i still dont understand is why this is more
//efficient than using foreach directly.
even.ForEach(delegate(int i){Console.Write(i + " ");});
//Computing Sum of Integers in List<T>
int sum=0;
integers.ForEach(delegate(int i){ sum+=i; });
WL("");
WL("Sum " + sum);
//Sort TestClasss in List<T>
List<TestClass> testClass = new List<TestClass>();
testClass.Add(new TestClass(10,"Milk"));
testClass.Add(new TestClass(5,"Cheese"));
testClass.Sort(delegate(TestClass x, TestClass y){
return Comparer<int>Default.Compare(x.Number,y.Number);
});
WL("Sorted TestClass");
testClass.ForEach(delegate(TestClass o){WL(o.Number + " " + o.String);});
RL();
}
#region Helper methods
private static void WL(object text, params object[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine(text.ToString(), args);
}
private static void RL()
{
Console.ReadLine();
}
#endregion
}
