Unique list of items using LINQ

Question

I\'ve been using LINQ for a while now, but seem to be stuck on something with regards to Unique items, I have the folling list:

List stock = new Lis         


        

Answer 1

Sounds like it's a simple Where clause needed.

List kitchen= stock.Where(s=>s.Type=="Kitchen Appliance")
                          .OrderBy(s=>s.Description).ToList();

If you wanted strictly the Types contained in the source list:

string[] typesFound = stock.Select(s=>s.Type).Distinct().ToArray();
