Combine Multiple Predicates

Question

Is there any way in c# .NET 2.0! to combine multiple Predicates?

Let\'s say I have the following code.

List names = new List

        

Answer 1

I guess you could write something like this:

Func<string, bool> predicate1 = s => s.StartsWith("E");
Func<string, bool> predicate2 = s => s.StartsWith("I");
Func<string, bool> combinedOr = s => (predicate1(s) || predicate2(s));
Func<string, bool> combinedAnd = s => (predicate1(s) && predicate2(s));

... and so on.
