Store an operator in a variable

Question

Is there a way to store an operator inside a variable? I want to do something like this (pseudo code):

void MyLoop(int start, int finish, operator op)
{
             


        

Answer 1

Use a Function delegate;

Encapsulates a method that has one parameter and returns a value of the type specified by the TResult parameter.

void MyLoop(int start, int finish, Func op)
{
    for(var i = start; i < finish; i = op(i))
    {
        //do stuff with i
    }
}

Then;

MyLoop(15, 45, x => ++x);
MyLoop(60, 10, x => --x);

Here is a DEMO.
