Cómo: Combinar y comparar colecciones de cadenas (LINQ)
Actualización: noviembre 2007
En este ejemplo se muestra cómo combinar archivos que contienen líneas de texto y, a continuación, ordenar los resultados. En concreto, muestra cómo realizar una concatenación simple, una unión y una intersección en los dos conjuntos de líneas de texto.
Para configurar el proyecto y los archivos de texto
Copie estos nombres en un archivo de texto que se denomine names1.txt y guárdelo en la carpeta de la solución:
Bankov, Peter Holm, Michael Garcia, Hugo Potra, Cristina Noriega, Fabricio Aw, Kam Foo Beebe, Ann Toyoshima, Tim Guy, Wey Yuan Garcia, DebraCopie estos nombres en un archivo de texto que se denomine names2.txt y guárdelo en la carpeta de la solución. Observe que los dos archivos tienen algunos nombres en común.
