Course Description

In this course you will learn everything you need to know about LINQ Operations and how to perform them.

We start off from the most basic operations and build towards more complex ones.

Both Query and Method syntax is covered in the course.

And of course, all the source code will be provided for each of the sections in the course, in a nicely ordered and structured fashion, so that you can use the code to practice and learn.

The course is aimed at students that have some coding experience in general and with C# in particular, a little bit of OOP knowledge is required, for some of the lectures.

The topics that we are covering are:

  • LINQ Basics with Query syntax – we will start with the most basic operations with query syntax and build towards more complex ones  

  • Grouping Operations with Query syntax – grouping allows you to group the items in a collection by a given common key, for example to group a list of people by their age. You will learn 5 different types of group operations  

  • Joining Operations with Query syntax – joining allows you to join two different collections by a common key, so its similar to grouping, but it just does it on two collections and not on one. You will learn the 3 major types of join operations and a few of their derivations  

  • The Let keyword – that allows you to create internal variables inside your queries  

  • LINQPad – short introduction to this nice piece of software that you can use while you study LINQ to better visualize the results of the operations  

  • LINQ Basics with Method syntax – here we will reiterate what we have already learned about LINQ but this time you will leran how to perform these operations with Method Syntax. Method syntax makes some of the operations easier to implement than Query syntax  

  • Grouping with Method syntax

  • Joining with Method syntax

  • Filtering, Converting and Ordering with Method syntax – while by this point you will already be familiar with the basics of these operations, there are things that need to be considered while performing these operations with Method Syntax. You will learn what are the common pitfalls.  

  • Cool Stuff in LINQ – Finally we will end with some cool operations that we can easily perform by using the LINQ Methods, how we can generate different sequences of numbers, characters, random numbers and many other things. More interesting things like Set, quantify, partition, concatenation and aggregation operations will also be explained

There are tons and tons of tutorials on Youtube and other websites, so why would you have to pay for this course?

The answer is very simple, in this course you will get every single lecture systemized in such way, that it ensures smooth transition between the previous and the following topic. Guaranteeing great learning experience.

There are no stones left unturned, everything is explained in great detail (but not too much, that would be boring :) )

The video lectures in the course are produced with the highest possible audio and video quality. No static noises to disturb you while you watch the videos, no blurry images, everything is crystal clear with crisp audio!

Instructor Details

Tod Vachev

I have graduated at Technical University of Varna as a Robotics Engineer. With several years of experience as a Passionate Developer and Engineer, I am now an Online Entrepreneur. Teaching is one of my passions, and what better and more impactful way to teach, than to do it online with thousands of students?

Currently focusing on providing quality education to tens of thousands of students across the globe, on subjects including:

- Programming, focusing on the C# Programming Language

- MATLAB, because this is a scientific tool that no scientist can do without

- Running Online Businesses that Earn Passive Income

For the past four years I have focused on the above and I have never stepped into the 9 to 5 world, I have worked in a company only once in my entire life and it lasted only 2 months. That's when I realized that, I can't learn the things that I want and I can't buy the things that I want buy working for someone else. You should start working for yourself aswell!

It does not matter if you want to become a developer or to run niche sites around the web, you can do both of these things in your own time as a freelancer or a business owner. And I can teach you how to do both of these things.

I can not say the course is not too bad. however, it still has a few drawbacks. - The course is a little bit outdated it can be updated with new LINQ features. - The course structure is a little bit ambiguous. Method syntax should be taught right after the query snytax. - There is a lack of assignments and challenges. I think for learning new things assignments, quizzes are crucial. Although you can still challenge yourself after the lessons, challenges should be inclueded in the course by itself.

Siempre había tenido curiosidad acerca de las virtudes de LINQ, pero nunca le había dedicado tiempo el necesario. Gracias a este curso he obtenido los conocimientos necesarios para aplicarlos en mi día a día de la manera más eficiente, ya que la información está bien explicada y sintetizada. La relación tiempo ahorrado y conocimiento adquirido me parece que merece la pena. Lo recomiendo 100%.

Great course! I was new to LINQ and while Tod presented content in a series of short and speedy code snippets, he provided sufficient context for the various examples to sink in. So while there weren't any projects, there was a lot to take away in 4+hrs. Really worth the time and money and I'll be using some of Tod's examples, I'm sure.

Showing Lambda expressions and their counterpart ForEach loops
is a very nice and good way of understanding what the code is doing
under the hood, i'm really enjoying this course.

By Steven Brubaker on 10/18/2020

Well organized. Clear examples. Will watch again when I want to use LINQ with Linq2DB instead of Dapper-NPGSQL duo with non-PostGIS PostgreSQL database backend.

By Prakhar Verma on 9/9/2020

Its a great course. Made it very simple for me to learn LINQ and Lambda expressions. Although I have some concerns- 1. Code sample is showing to have virus on scanning. Had to write and initialize classes manually, which wasted time. 2. Visual Studio code is very difficult to read, you could've increased the zoom in VS. Thank You for your course.

Sometimes, I can not see the code examples becuase the screen was very small but the explanation is very good. Also the examples are fine.

By Derek Penton on 9/1/2020

Clear explanations, useful examples.

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

By Ebola Eseme Achile on 8/23/2020

it is great and it is helping enough

By Fabio Lazari Costa on 8/22/2020

Muito bom o curso, do bsico toda potencialidade do LINQ.

By Tzvi Taub on 8/9/2020

An explanation of the uses / purposes of operations before they are practically shown will be useful also, a screen for exercises to make it interactive rather than a lecture on line. The join operations for instance are not fully clear is there a Right full outer? as in SQL?
The teacher is undoubtedly well versed in his craft, but the Russian accent makes it hard at times to understand.
