Range Operator in Linq.

Linq is almost providing all the functionalities and i have found one another great operator called range operator which will return a sequence of integer number from start point to number of count. Here is the signature of range operator in Linq.

public static IEnumerable<int> Range(int start, int count)

Here the Start means the starting integer of the sequence and count means the number of sequence you want from starting integer. Let’s take a simple example for that where will print 5 to 9 sequence with the help of range operator. Here is the code for that.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;


namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var RangeResult = Enumerable.Range(5, 5);
        Console.WriteLine("Range Result");
        foreach (int num in RangeResult)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(num);
        }
    }

}
}

And here is the output for that as expected.


Hope this will help you..
