How to Get a Sublist in C#

Question

I have a List and i need to take a sublist out of this list. Is there any methods of List available for this in .NET 3.5?

Answer 1

With LINQ:

List l = new List { "1", "2", "3" ,"4","5"};
List l2 = l.Skip(1).Take(2).ToList();

If you need foreach, then no need for ToList:

foreach (string s in l.Skip(1).Take(2)){}

Advantage of LINQ is that if you want to just skip some leading element,you can :

List l2 = l.Skip(1).ToList();
foreach (string s in l.Skip(1)){}

i.e. no need to take care of count/length, etc.
