Sorting a List of objects in C#

Question

public class CarSpecs
{
  public String CarName { get; set; }

  public String CarMaker { get; set; }

  public DateTime CreationDate { get; set; }
}

Answer 1

The List class makes this trivial for you, since it contains a Sort method. (It uses the QuickSort algorithm, not Bubble Sort, which is typically better anyway.) Even better, it has an overload that takes a Comparison argument, which means you can pass a lambda expression and make things very simple indeed.

Try this:

CarList.Sort((x, y) => DateTime.Compare(x.CreationDate, y.CreationDate));
