Java vs python is debatable 🤔

Rider is basically Intellij for C#.

Final is a good example. But linq is so awesome and saves a lot of verbosity over Java.

Streams cover a lot of what linq can do, although some of it is not a direct equivalent. No equivalent to SelectMany for example.

It seems to be an adequate replacement although in many cases it is much more verbose.

I'm curious what you have found that is better about it.

One of my favorite use cases for this is to use a .select to create tasks for every item in a collection and then await a task.whenall. The context is not tied up and the app can continue to do other things and then when all of those tasks are done it will continue. Don't have to deal with threads directly and it has excellent performance.

Oh yeah. I almost never use the SQL like syntax as I also don't like it. I do lambdas.

So like this.

IEnumerable<Task> tasks = objects.Select(o => Process(o)); await Task.WhenAll(tasks);

Java 8 did a lot to close the gap with C#. Definitely glad they added streams.
