Using LINQPAD

Hi Friends,

In this section, I’ll introduce you with one of my favorite tools i.e. Linqpad. you can download the same from https://www.linqpad.net/. This is extensive tool for .NET programmers. LINQPAD is The .NET Programmer’s Playground. Here, you can do bunch of stuffs like executing LINQ query against SQL, Azure, XML, any object or against any other database. You can add your SQL connection like shown below.
