Join clause
Use join
to associate and/or combine elements from one data source with elements from another
based on an equality comparison between keys in each element.
After you have joined two sequences, you must use a select
or group
statement to specify which
element to store in the output sequence.
var categoryQuery =
from cat in categories // `categories` is a string array.
// join `prod` objects whose `Category` property matches one of the categories in the `categories` string array:
join prod in products on cat equals prod.Category
select new // anonymous type
{
Category = cat,
Name = prod.Name
};
