Combine Multiple Predicates

Question

Is there any way in c# .NET 2.0! to combine multiple Predicates?

Let\'s say I have the following code.

List names = new List

        

Answer 1

In .NET 2.0, there are anonymous delegates which you can use there:

List filteredNames = names.FindAll(
   delegate(string s) { return StartsWithE(s) OR StartsWithI(s); }
);

In fact, you can use it to replace your functions as well:

List filteredNames = names.FindAll(
   delegate(string s) { return s.StartsWith("E") || s.StartsWith("I"); }
);
