Expression-Bodied Members

Expression body definitions are a concise form of implementing a member.

usage

member => expression;

use in methods

Commonly used in types that override the ToString method:

public override string ToString() => $"{fname} {lname}".Trim();

use in read only properties

public class Location {
    private string locationName;

    public Location(string name) 
    {
        locationName = name;
    }

    public string Name => locationName;
}

use in constructors and properties

public class Location 
{
    private string locationName;

    public Location(string name) => Name = name; // Assigns argument name to property Name.

    public string Name 
    {
        get => locationName; // Equivalent to get { return locationName; }
        set => locationName; // Equivalent to set { locationName = name } = value;(?)
    }
}
