您可以从Random类中获得许多功能。

下面是我经常使用的一些扩展方法。有了这些，除了Next和NextDouble, Random类还提供了NextBool, NextChar, NextDateTime, NextTimeSpan, NextDouble(接受minValue和maxValue参数)，以及我个人最喜欢的NextString。还有更多(NextByte, NextShort, NextLong等);但这些主要是为了完整性，并不经常使用。所以我没有在这里包含它们(这段代码已经足够长了!)。

// todo: implement additional CharType values (e.g., AsciiAny)
public enum CharType {
    AlphabeticLower,
    AlphabeticUpper,
    AlphabeticAny,
    AlphanumericLower,
    AlphanumericUpper,
    AlphanumericAny,
    Numeric
}

public static class RandomExtensions {
    // 10 digits vs. 52 alphabetic characters (upper & lower);
    // probability of being numeric: 10 / 62 = 0.1612903225806452
    private const double AlphanumericProbabilityNumericAny = 10.0 / 62.0;

    // 10 digits vs. 26 alphabetic characters (upper OR lower);
    // probability of being numeric: 10 / 36 = 0.2777777777777778
    private const double AlphanumericProbabilityNumericCased = 10.0 / 36.0;

    public static bool NextBool(this Random random, double probability) {
        return random.NextDouble() <= probability;

    }

    public static char NextChar(this Random random, CharType mode) {

            case CharType.AlphanumericLower:
                return random.NextAlphanumericChar(false);
            case CharType.AlphanumericUpper:
                return random.NextAlphanumericChar(true);
            case CharType.Numeric:
                return random.NextNumericChar();
            default:
                return random.NextAlphanumericChar();
        }
    }

    public static char NextChar(this Random random) {
        return random.NextChar(CharType.AlphanumericAny);
    }

    private static char NextAlphanumericChar(this Random random, bool uppercase) {
        bool numeric = random.NextBool(AlphanumericProbabilityNumericCased);

        if (numeric)
            return random.NextNumericChar();
        else
            return random.NextAlphabeticChar(uppercase);
    }

    private static char NextAlphanumericChar(this Random random) {

    }

    private static char NextNumericChar(this Random random) {
        return (char)random.Next(48, 58);
    }

    public static DateTime NextDateTime(this Random random, DateTime minValue, DateTime maxValue) {
        return DateTime.FromOADate(
            random.NextDouble(minValue.ToOADate(), maxValue.ToOADate())
        );
    }

    public static DateTime NextDateTime(this Random random) {
        return random.NextDateTime(DateTime.MinValue, DateTime.MaxValue);

    public static double NextDouble(this Random random, double minValue, double maxValue) {
        if (maxValue < minValue)
            throw new ArgumentException("Minimum value must be less than maximum value.");

        double difference = maxValue - minValue;
        if (!double.IsInfinity(difference))
            return minValue + (random.NextDouble() * difference);

        else {
            // to avoid evaluating to Double.Infinity, we split the range into two halves:
            double halfDifference = (maxValue * 0.5) - (minValue * 0.5);

            // 50/50 chance of returning a value from the first or second half of the range
            if (random.NextBool())
                return minValue + (random.NextDouble() * halfDifference);
            else

        }
    }

    public static string NextString(this Random random, int numChars, CharType mode) {
        char[] chars = new char[numChars];

        for (int i = 0; i < numChars; ++i)
            chars[i] = random.NextChar(mode);

        return new string(chars);

    public static TimeSpan NextTimeSpan(this Random random, TimeSpan minValue, TimeSpan maxValue) {
        return TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(
            random.NextDouble(minValue.TotalMilliseconds, maxValue.TotalMilliseconds)
        );
    }

    public static TimeSpan NextTimeSpan(this Random random) {
        return random.NextTimeSpan(TimeSpan.MinValue, TimeSpan.MaxValue);
    }
}

我创建了一个漂亮的Each扩展，具有与jQuery的Each函数相同的行为。

它允许如下所示，你可以获得当前值的索引，并通过返回false跳出循环:

new[] { "first", "second", "third" }.Each((value, index) =>
{
    if (value.Contains("d"))
        return false;
    Console.Write(value);
    return true;
});

下面是代码

/// <summary>
/// Generic iterator function that is useful to replace a foreach loop with at your discretion.  A provided action is performed on each element.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
/// <param name="source"></param>
/// <param name="action">Function that takes in the current value in the sequence. 
/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T> action)
{
    return source.Each((value, index) =>
    {
        action(value);
        return true;
    });
}


/// <summary>

/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
/// <param name="source"></param>
/// <param name="action">Function that takes in the current value and its index in the sequence.  
/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T, int> action)
{
    return source.Each((value, index) =>
    {
        action(value, index);
        return true;
    });
}

/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T, bool> action)
{
    return source.Each((value, index) =>
    {
        return action(value);
    });
}

/// <summary>

/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T, int, bool> action)
{
    if (source == null)
        return source;

    int index = 0;
    foreach (var sourceItem in source)
    {
        if (!action(sourceItem, index))
            break;
        index++;
    }
    return source;
}

一些用于使用列表的扩展:

/// <summary>
/// Wrap an object in a list
/// </summary>
public static IList<T> WrapInList<T>(this T item)
{
    List<T> result = new List<T>();
    result.Add(item);
    return result;
}

使用如:

myList = someObject.InList();

使IEnumerable包含来自一个或多个源的项，以使IEnumerable更像列表。对于高性能代码来说，这可能不是一个好主意，但对于测试来说很有用:

public static IEnumerable<T> Append<T>(this IEnumerable<T> enumerable, T newItem)
{
    foreach (T item in enumerable)
    {
        yield return item;
    }

    yield return newItem;
}

public static IEnumerable<T> Append<T>(this IEnumerable<T> enumerable, params T[] newItems)
{
    foreach (T item in enumerable)
    {
        yield return item;
    }

    foreach (T newItem in newItems)
    {
        yield return newItem;
    }
}

如使用。

someEnumeration = someEnumeration.Append(newItem);

还有其他可能的变化——例如。

someEnumeration = someEnumeration.Append(otherEnumeration);

如果你正在克隆项目，你可能还想克隆它们的列表:

public static IList<T> Clone<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source) where T: ICloneable
{
    List<T> result = new List<T>();

    foreach (T item in source)
    {
        result.Add((T)item.Clone());
    }

    return result;
}

当我使用ObservableCollection<T>时，我通常使用AddRange方法扩展它。这里的其他答案给出了这个的实现。

如果您愿意，可以将此代码放入Codeplex项目中。

轻松序列化对象为XML:

public static string ToXml<T>(this T obj) where T : class
{
    XmlSerializer s = new XmlSerializer(obj.GetType());
    using (StringWriter writer = new StringWriter())
    {
        s.Serialize(writer, obj);
        return writer.ToString();
    }
}

"<root><child>foo</child</root>".ToXml<MyCustomType>();

在我的MiscUtil项目中有各种扩展方法(完整的源代码在那里可用-我不打算在这里重复它)。我最喜欢的，其中一些涉及其他类(如范围):

日期和时间——主要用于单元测试。我不确定我会在生产中使用它们:)

var birthday = 19.June(1976);
var workingDay = 7.Hours() + 30.Minutes();

范围和步进——非常感谢Marc Gravell的运算符使这成为可能:

var evenNaturals = 2.To(int.MaxValue).Step(2);
var daysSinceBirth = birthday.To(DateTime.Today).Step(1.Days());

比较:

var myComparer = ProjectionComparer.Create(Person p => p.Name);
var next = myComparer.ThenBy(p => p.Age);
var reversed = myComparer.Reverse();

参数检查:

x.ThrowIfNull("x");

LINQ to XML应用于匿名类型(或其他具有适当属性的类型):

// <Name>Jon</Name><Age>32</Age>
new { Name="Jon", Age=32}.ToXElements();
// Name="Jon" Age="32" (as XAttributes, obviously)
new { Name="Jon", Age=32}.ToXAttributes()

Push LINQ -在这里解释太长了，但是可以搜索一下。
