Hi Joe,

Good eyes! The sample above is referencing a Person class, which has overridden .ToString(), so that is what gets printed. In the absence of that, your solution is correct.

I was trying to test out the example and ran into a problem.

dict2.ExecuteOnValues(f => Console.WriteLine(“{0} is a {1} born on {2}”, f, f.GetType().Name, f.DOB));

Regarding Param {0} which maps to “f”(the object and not a member) if it is supposed to produce the first and last name as show in the console output then should not the extension call be like

dict2.ExecuteOnValues(f => Console.WriteLine(“{0} is a {1} born on {2}”, f.FirstName + ‘ ‘ + f.LastName , f.GetType().Name, f.DOB));

Nice article but i am not sure if declaring variables inside a loop is a good idea and a good practice.

How do you exit a

List().ForEach(delegate(Person p)
{
if(p.Name == “foo”)
//HOW TO EXIT IMMEDIATLY ? Because break
//isn’t accepted and return doesn’t exist at all
});

Thank you to email me instead of writing here since I may forget that I did come here…
