Rob Conery - How I Got Started In Software Development

submitted by adminjew 2 months, 1 day ago

blog.wekeroad.com — How old were you when you first started in programming? I was 13 when I got a Radio Shack "computer" for my birthday. I wanna say it was a TRS-80, but this is before those - it didn't have any kind of floppy disc, and all it let you do was write BASIC apps on a TV screen. But it really doesn't count because all I did was let my big brother show me how to make a Christmas tree using some capital A's with BASIC. 136242-18_TRS-80-Model-1 I remember feeling extremely cool - my big brother is quite the genius and at the time was getting his PhD in computer science from UC Irvine. read more...

LINQ Farm: More on Set Operators

blogs.msdn.com — This is a second post on the LINQ Set operators, the first being published while LINQ was still in beta. As mentioned in the previous post, there are four LINQ set operators: Union, Intersect, Distinct and Except. Like the other 50 LINQ operators, these methods are designed to allow you to query data which supports the IEnumerable<T> interface. Since all LINQ query expressions, and most LINQ queries, return IEnumerable<T>, these operators are designed to allow you to perform set operations on the results of a LINQ query. In this post I give four highly simplified examples of how to use each of the operators, and then end with a more complex example that shows how the operators might be used in a real world setting. read more...
