LINQ Queries Examples Using Query Method and Query Syntax

Basically, the LINQ queries using query syntax and method syntax. The method syntax called Lambda Expressions.

The LINQ query syntax is close to native language and it is simple and easy to read.

The method syntax is powerful but it is shorter and suitable tool.

They compile the same and both are equivalent.

Personally, I prefer to lambda extensions for most code writing. I am only using the statements if I am doing LINQ to SQL otherwise I am trying to emulate SQL. I find that the lambda methods flow better with code whereas the statements are visually distracting.

You can see the LINQ Query in the below pic,





So, here I am trying to explain gather T-SQL queries along with their equivalent LINQ queries in the both method and query syntax.

EmpEntites empEnt = new EmpEntites();  //This is entities objects.

In these entities objects, we have a table “tbl_Employee” and I am trying to explain T-SQL queries along with their equivalent LINQ queries in the both method and query syntax.

Now, get top two records from “tbl_Employee” i.e.
var result = empEnt.tbl_Employee.Take(2).ToList(); //This is Lambda.
var result = from emp in empEnt.tbl_Employee.Take(2) select emp;  //This is query.

Now, I get all the records from “tbl_Employee” which are sorted by EmpId ascending i.e.
var result = empEnt.tbl_Employee.OrderBy(x=>x.EmpId).ToList(); // This is Lambda.
var result = from emp in empEnt.tbl_Employee orderby(emp.EmpId) select emp;  //This is query.

Now, I get all the records from “tbl_Employee” which are sorted by EmpId descending i.e.
var result = empEnt.tbl_Employee.OrderByDescending(x=>x.EmpId).ToList(); // This is Lambda.
var result = from emp in empEnt.tbl_Employee orderby(emp.EmpId) descending select emp;  //This is query.


I hope this is helpful to you! Thank you!

React | Encryption and Decryption Data/Text using CryptoJs

To encrypt and decrypt data, simply use encrypt () and decrypt () function from an instance of crypto-js. Node.js (Install) Requirements: 1.       Node.js 2.       npm (Node.js package manager) 3.       npm install crypto-js npm   install   crypto - js Usage - Step 1 - Import var   CryptoJS  =  require ( "crypto-js" ); Step 2 - Encrypt    // Encrypt    var   ciphertext  =  CryptoJS . AES . encrypt ( JSON . stringify ( data ),  'my-secret-key@123' ). toString (); Step 3 -Decrypt    // Decrypt    var   bytes  =  CryptoJS . AES . decrypt ( ciphertext ,  'my-secret-key@123' );    var   decryptedData  =  JSON . parse ( bytes . toString ( CryptoJS . enc . Utf8 )); As an Example,   import   React   from   'react' ; import   './App.css' ; //Including all libraries, for access to extra methods. var   CryptoJS  =  require ( "crypto-js" ); function   App () {    var   data

Encryption and Decryption Data/Password in Angular

You can use crypto.js to encrypt data. We have used 'crypto-js'.   Follow the below steps, Steps 1 –  Install CryptoJS using below NPM commands in your project directory npm install crypto-js --save npm install @types/crypto-js –save After installing both above commands it looks like  – NPM Command  1 ->   npm install crypto-js --save NPM Command  2 ->   npm install @types/crypto-js --save Steps 2  - Add the script path in “ angular.json ” file. "scripts" : [                "../node_modules/crypto-js/crypto-js.js"               ] Steps 3 –  Create a service class “ EncrDecrService ” for  encrypts and decrypts get/set methods . Import “ CryptoJS ” in the service for using  encrypt and decrypt get/set methods . import  {  Injectable  }  from   '@angular/core' ; import   *   as   CryptoJS   from   'crypto-js' ; @ Injectable ({    providedIn:   'root' }) export   class   EncrDecrS
