c# - Select fails to print to console -

i hoping utilize select functional foreach. when following, expected print

foo bar baz

it doesn't print however. howcome? code is

list<string> strings = new list<string>(){"foo", "bar", "baz"}; strings.select(st => { console.writeline(st); homecoming 1; });

use foreach:

list<string> strings = new list<string>() { "foo", "bar", "baz" }; strings.foreach(st => { console.writeline(st); });

by using select you're defining anonymous functions next body.

console.writeline(st); homecoming 1;

so, console.writeline triggered when you're iterating through list, this:

var x= strings.select(st => { console.writeline(st); homecoming 1; }); foreach (var in x){ }

or x.tolist()

and wrong, utilize foreach :)

c# linq select
