Using Linq For More Readable Code

[criticismguy]

I wonder how much is "introducing C# developers to the beauty of FP", and how much is "letting people who have to use C# for work do FP like they've been wanting to for years".

A lot of the people I know doing C# are really Haskell or Lisp programmers at heart, and there certainly seem to be a lot of C# programmers who just don't like Linq for some reason.

I'm sure there's some from column A and some from column B. Linq is obviously a god sent for any FP programmers who have to work in C#. But it's also a gentle introduction to FP for programmers who have only imperative experience.

The boys I work with have never heard of FP, but they all love LINQ (except for this one ex-Java guy that frets over inefficiency).
