After completing a LINQ book (which I was reviewing), I found out that LINQ in VB has more features than in C# (query expression wise). I was thinking about a simple example that can be used to demo LINQ in VB and that was it.

Not Vaporware Beta? :-D As VB is just a "prototyping language", it makes sense to use it as a test bed for Linq, before putting the final implementation in C#.

Now, that's a challenge!! I haven't used VB for at least 5 years, but here we go...
Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)
For Each n In (From a In args Select r = Int32.Parse(a) Order By r Skip (args.Length - 5) / 2 Take 5)
Console.WriteLine(n)
Next

Given a set of numbers passed to the command line. The number of number is always odd. The program should sort them and output the 5 numbers in the middle. For example, if there are 9 numbers the output should be sorted numbers from indices 2 to 6. e.g.
c:> med5 67 89 12 1 8 1 3 5 7

Hot damn, somebody who likes to do perverted things with batch files as much as I do! :cool: :-D
Software Zen:
delete this;It is really amazing to see a charming quick cut batch file doing that marvellously. :)

Is it available for download somewhere? I got a copy of QBasic anyway from here: http://www.uv.tietgen.dk/staff/mlha/Download/DOS/microsoft/qbasic.exe[^]

Anyway, a 5 is a 5 ;P. Btw I think I should learn a new language to reply to your Friday Question. Replies representing all other languages are just there in seconds you post your question.we can't make our replies unique unless I try for a deliberately different technique of the same language.:-D

Here's some C#.
System.Collections.Generic.List<int> list = new System.Collections.Generic.List<int>
(
System.Array.ConvertAll<string,int>
(
args
,
delegate ( string s ) { return ( (int) System.Convert.ChangeType ( s , typeof(int) ) ) ; }
)
) ;list.Sort() ;
foreach
(
int i
in
list.GetRange
(
args.Length/2-2
,
5
)
)
{
System.Console.WriteLine ( i ) ;
}This points up two shortcomings of the current (V2) implementation of .net: 1) System.Array doesn't have a GetRange() method 2) Sort() returns void -- returning a reference to the object would be more flexible If these shortcomings were corrected, the above code could be:
foreach
(
int i
in
System.Array.ConvertAll<string,int>
(
args
,
delegate ( string s ) { return ( (int) System.Convert.ChangeType ( s , typeof(int) ) ) ; }
).Sort().GetRange
(
args.Length/2-2
,
5
)
)
{
System.Console.WriteLine ( i ) ;

Do you now that the Silverlight Compiler is written in VB.Net???? You should think twice before you say that VB is used only for testing purposes.
