Introducing Microsoft LINQ Free Digital E-Book Download

LINQ (Language Integrated Query) is a Microsoft .NET Framework extension component that adds native data querying capabilities to .NET C# and Visual Basic programming languages using a native syntax reminiscent of SQL, and provides class libraries to take advantage of these capabilities. LINQ defines a set of query operators that can be used to query, set, transform, project and filter data in arrays, enumerable classes, XML, relational database, and third party data sources.

LINQ was officially released as a part of .NET Framework 3.5 on November 19, 2007. For anyone who wants to learn and master LINQ technology, Microsoft Press, the publishing arm of Microsoft, has published Introducing Microsoft LINQ, written by Paolo Pialorsi and Marco Russo (ISBN: 9780735623910).
