Liqn基础

Linq：语言集成查询 (LINQ) 是 Visual Studio 2008 中引入的一组功能，可为 C# 和 Visual Basic 语言语法提供强大的查询功能。 LINQ 引入了标准易学的数据查询和更新模式，可以扩展该方法来支持任何类型的数据存储。 Visual Studio 包括 LINQ 提供程序集，后者支持将 LINQ 与 .NET Framework 集合、SQL Server 数据库、ADO.NET 数据集和 XML 文档结合使用。

语法形式：

  var 临时数据=  from 临时变量 in 集合对象或数据库对象 　
　           where 条件表达式 　　
               order by条件　　
               select 临时变量中被查询的值 　
               group by 条件

linq 查询与 Lamda表达式查询比对

 var query = from r in Formula1.GetChampions()
                        where r.Country == "Brazil"
                        orderby r.Wins descending
                        select r;

            foreach (Racer r in query)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("{0:A}", r);
            }

            // Lamda表达式查询
            IList<Racer> list = Formula1.GetChampions().Where(r => r.Country == "Brazil").OrderBy(a => a.Wins).ToList();

            foreach (Racer r in list)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("{0:A}", r);
            }

Formula1.GetChampions()是个集合对象。我们这边用了lamda表达式也可以很快的查询 。from、where、orderby、 descending和select都是这个查询中的预定义关键字，查询语句必须以form开头 以select 或者 group 子句结尾。变量query 指定了linq 查询，该语句不是通过赋值语句查询的，只要使用foreach循环方法
var可以将查询结果的类型显式声明为 IEnumerable<string>。 但是，在第二个表达式中必须使用 var，因为结果是一个匿名类型集合，而该类型的名称只有编译器本身可以访问。

编译器会转换linq查询，但是调用方法而不是linq查询。这里的Where是个扩展方法。
