这是另一双我觉得用不完的鞋:

public static T ObjectWithMin<T, TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> sequence, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
    where T : class
    where TResult : IComparable
{
    if (!sequence.Any()) return null;

    //get the first object with its predicate value
    var seed = sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)}).FirstOrDefault();
    //compare against all others, replacing the accumulator with the lesser value
    //tie goes to first object found
    return
        sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)})
            .Aggregate(seed,(acc, x) => acc.Value.CompareTo(x.Value) <= 0 ? acc : x).Object;
}

public static T ObjectWithMax<T, TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> sequence, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
    where T : class
    where TResult : IComparable
{
    if (!sequence.Any()) return null;

    //get the first object with its predicate value
    var seed = sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)}).FirstOrDefault();
    //compare against all others, replacing the accumulator with the greater value
    //tie goes to last object found
    return
        sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)})
            .Aggregate(seed, (acc, x) => acc.Value.CompareTo(x.Value) > 0 ? acc : x).Object;
}

用法:

var myObject = myList.ObjectWithMin(x=>x.PropA);

这些方法基本上取代了像

var myObject = myList.OrderBy(x=>x.PropA).FirstOrDefault(); //O(nlog(n)) and unstable

and

var myObject = myList.Where(x=>x.PropA == myList.Min(x=>x.PropA)).FirstOrDefault(); //O(N^2) but stable

and

var minValue = myList.Min(x=>x.PropA);
var myObject = myList.Where(x=>x.PropA == minValue).FirstOrDefault(); //not a one-liner, and though linear and stable it's slower (evaluates the enumerable twice)

在。net中，有IndexOf和LastIndexOf方法，它们返回String对象中第一个和最后一个匹配项的索引。我有一个扩展方法来获得第n次出现的索引:

public static partial class StringExtensions {

    public static int NthIndexOf(this String str, String match, int occurrence) {
        int i = 1;
        int index = 0;

        while (i <= occurrence && 
            ( index = str.IndexOf(match, index + 1) ) != -1) {

            if (i == occurrence) {
                // Occurrence match found!
                return index;
            }
            i++;
        }

        // Match not found
        return -1;
    }
}

没有检查整个线程，所以它可能已经在这里，但是:

public static class FluentOrderingExtensions
    public class FluentOrderer<T> : IEnumerable<T>
    {
        internal List<Comparison<T>> Comparers = new List<Comparison<T>>();

                if(result != 0) return result;
            }
            return 0;
        }

        IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()
        {
            return GetEnumerator();
        }

        #endregion
    }

        var result = new FluentOrderer<T>(source);
        result.Comparers.Add((a,b)=>predicate(a).CompareTo(predicate(b)));
        return result;
    }

    public static FluentOrderer<T> OrderFluentlyByDescending<T,TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T,TResult> predicate) 
        where TResult : IComparable<TResult>

    {
        source.Comparers.Add((a, b) => predicate(a).CompareTo(predicate(b)) * -1);
        return source;
    }

用法:

var myFluentlyOrderedList = GetABunchOfComplexObjects()
    .OrderFluentlyBy(x=>x.PropertyA)
    .ThenByDescending(x=>x.PropertyB)
    .ThenBy(x=>x.SomeMethod())
    .ThenBy(x=>SomeOtherMethodAppliedTo(x))
    .ToList();

．.． 当然，假设所有的谓词都返回与自身icomcomparable的类型。如果使用像MergeSort这样的稳定排序，而不是。net内置的快速排序，它会更好地工作，但它提供了类似于SQL的可读多字段排序能力(无论如何，它是方法链所能获得的最接近的功能)。您可以通过定义重载来接受比较lambda，而不是基于谓词创建它，从而扩展它以容纳非IComparable的成员。

EDIT: A little explanation, since the commenter got some upticks: this set of methods improves upon the basic OrderBy() functionality by allowing you to sort based on multiple fields in descending order of importance. A real-world example would be sorting a list of invoices by customer, then by invoice number (or invoice date). Other methods of getting the data in this order either wouldn't work (OrderBy() uses an unstable sort, so it cannot be chained) or would be inefficient and not look like it does what you're trying to do.

下面是我用来减少提取单个属性的一些方法:

public static T GetAttribute<T>(this ICustomAttributeProvider provider, bool inherit = false, int index = 0) where T : Attribute
{
    return provider.GetAttribute(typeof(T), inherit, index) as T;
}

public static Attribute GetAttribute(this ICustomAttributeProvider provider, Type type, bool inherit = false, int index = 0)
{
    bool exists = provider.IsDefined(type, inherit);
    if (!exists)
    {
        return null;
    }

    object[] attributes = provider.GetCustomAttributes(type, inherit);
    if (attributes != null && attributes.Length != 0)
    {
        return attributes[index] as Attribute;
    }
    else
    {
        return null;
    }
}

用法(枚举描述hack的实现):

public static string GetDescription(this Enum value)
{
    var fieldInfo = value.GetType().GetField(value.ToString());
    var attribute = fieldInfo.GetAttribute<DescriptionAttribute>();
    return attribute != null ? attribute.Description : null;
}

第一个是我最喜欢的，因为它可以代替:

Control c = this.FindControl("tbName");
if (c != null)
{
    // Do something with c
    customer.Name = ((TextBox)c).Text;
}

用这个:

TextBox c = this.FindControl<TextBox>("tbName");
customer.Name = c.Text;

设置默认字符串值:

string str = "";
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(str))
{
    str = "I'm empty!";
}

就变成:

str = str.Alternative("I'm empty!");
