anguage Integrated Query, or LINQ, is a new Microsoft technology introduced with the .NET 3.5 framework. This Microsoft quote describes its purpose succinctly:
"Traditionally, queries against data are expressed as simple strings without type checking at compile time or IntelliSense support. Furthermore, you have to learn a different query language for each type of data source: SQL databases, XML documents, various Web services, and so on. LINQ makes a query a first-class language construct in C# and Visual Basic. You write queries against strongly typed collections of objects by using language keywords and familiar operators."
