Lambda Expression
Last modified: Monday, October 20, 2008
Lambda Expressions are based on function programming; they have been added to
.NET. A Lambda Expression is essentially a very compressed function often
used where a delegate would be used, and they have a precise
syntax, which
is roughly:
Function(arg1, arg2...argn) expression
You can explicitly type the parameters — that is, provide the
argument types or
leave them unspecified and the compiler will figure it out. The expression part
is a statement such as a + b, or s.Length. The Return keyword is implicit.
