Understanding Lambda expressions and delegates [closed]

Answer 1

As the others said, lambdas are a syntax to create delegates inline and anonymously. One thing you can do with lambdas that is not possible with traditional functions are closures. This way you can create functions at runtime with runtime information:

string mystring = SomeObject.GetMyString();
AnotherObject.OnSomeEvent += (eventparams => 
{
  string newstring = string.Format(eventparams.Message, mystring);
  SomeService.PrintEvent(newstring);
}

This way, mystring is incorporated into the delegate and can be used as a variable.
