Query your database data with LINQ

- [Walt] Early in the .NET era, Microsoft decided that functional programming concepts should be a part of .NET. The main goal of this initiative was to bring to life a new programming query language, called language integrated query, better known as LINQ. LINQ can be used to access data coming from many sources. In this course, we'll look at the database versions of LINQ. The primary version for this course is LINQ to Entities, but we'll also take a brief look at LINQ to SQL and LINQ to DataSet. Hi there, I'm Walt Ritscher. I'm a big fan of LINQ. In this course, we'll explore fundamental concepts for LINQ queries that work with entity framework. Put on your explorer hat, and let's query your data.
