How to check if IEnumerable is null or empty?

Question

I love string.IsNullOrEmpty method. I\'d love to have something that would allow the same functionality for IEnumerable. Is there such? Maybe some collection he

Answer 1

I use

    list.Where (r=>r.value == value).DefaultIfEmpty().First()

The result will be null if no match, otherwise returns one of the objects

If you wanted the list, I believe leaving of First() or calling ToList() will provide the list or null.
