我已经快速阅读了Microsoft Lambda表达式文档。

不过,这样的例子帮助我更好地理解:

delegate int del(int i);
del myDelegate = x => x * x;
int j = myDelegate(5); //j = 25

不过,我还是不明白为什么这是一种创新。它只是一个在“方法变量”结束时死亡的方法,对吧?为什么我要用这个而不是真正的方法?

创新在于类型的安全性和透明度。虽然您没有声明lambda表达式的类型,但它们是推断出来的,并且可以由代码搜索、静态分析、重构工具和运行时反射使用。

例如,在您使用SQL之前,可能会受到SQL注入攻击,因为黑客在通常需要数字的地方传递了一个字符串。现在您将使用LINQ lambda表达式,这是受保护的。

在纯委托上构建LINQ API是不可能的,因为它需要在计算表达式树之前将它们组合在一起。

2016年,大多数流行语言都支持lambda表达式,c#是主流命令式语言中这一演变的先驱之一。

其他回答

当我想使用另一个控件为某个控件的事件声明一个处理程序时,我发现它们很有用。 要做到这一点,你必须将控件的引用存储在类的字段中,这样你就可以在不同的方法中使用它们。

private ComboBox combo;
private Label label;

public CreateControls()
{
    combo = new ComboBox();
    label = new Label();
    //some initializing code
    combo.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(combo_SelectedIndexChanged);
}

void combo_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    label.Text = combo.SelectedValue;
}

多亏了lambda表达式,你可以这样使用它:

public CreateControls()
{
    ComboBox combo = new ComboBox();
    Label label = new Label();
    //some initializing code
    combo.SelectedIndexChanged += (s, e) => {label.Text = combo.SelectedValue;};
}

容易得多。

Microsoft has given us a cleaner, more convenient way of creating anonymous delegates called Lambda expressions. However, there is not a lot of attention being paid to the expressions portion of this statement. Microsoft released a entire namespace, System.Linq.Expressions, which contains classes to create expression trees based on lambda expressions. Expression trees are made up of objects that represent logic. For example, x = y + z is an expression that might be part of an expression tree in .Net. Consider the following (simple) example:

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Linq.Expressions;


namespace ExpressionTreeThingy
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Expression<Func<int, int>> expr = (x) => x + 1; //this is not a delegate, but an object
            var del = expr.Compile(); //compiles the object to a CLR delegate, at runtime
            Console.WriteLine(del(5)); //we are just invoking a delegate at this point
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
}

This example is trivial. And I am sure you are thinking, "This is useless as I could have directly created the delegate instead of creating an expression and compiling it at runtime". And you would be right. But this provides the foundation for expression trees. There are a number of expressions available in the Expressions namespaces, and you can build your own. I think you can see that this might be useful when you don't know exactly what the algorithm should be at design or compile time. I saw an example somewhere for using this to write a scientific calculator. You could also use it for Bayesian systems, or for genetic programming (AI). A few times in my career I have had to write Excel-like functionality that allowed users to enter simple expressions (addition, subtrations, etc) to operate on available data. In pre-.Net 3.5 I have had to resort to some scripting language external to C#, or had to use the code-emitting functionality in reflection to create .Net code on the fly. Now I would use expression trees.

lambda表达式就像代替委托实例编写的匿名方法。

delegate int MyDelagate (int i);
MyDelagate delSquareFunction = x => x * x;

考虑lambda表达式x => x * x;

输入参数值为x(在=>的左边) 函数逻辑为x * x(在=>的右侧)

lambda表达式的代码可以是语句块,而不是表达式。

x => {return x * x;};

例子

注意:Func是一个预定义的泛型委托。

    Console.WriteLine(MyMethod(x => "Hi " + x));

    public static string MyMethod(Func<string, string> strategy)
    {
        return strategy("Lijo").ToString();
    }

委托和接口如何可以互换使用?

在c#中,我们不能像在JavaScript中那样将函数作为参数传递。解决方法是使用委托。

当我们想参数化行为而不是值时,我们使用委托。Lambdas是编写委托的实用语法,可以很容易地将行为作为函数传递。

例如,Lambda表达式使任务简单得多

var numbers = new List<int> { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 };

var oddNumbers = numbers.Where(x => x % 2 != 0);
var sumOfEven = numbers.Where(x => x % 2 == 0).Sum();

在上面的代码中,因为我们使用了lambda,所以我们在一行代码中得到奇数和偶数的和。

如果没有lambda,我们将不得不使用if/else或for循环。

因此,使用lambda来简化c#中的代码是很好的。
