Note that this article is from 2006. Hence his using of C# 2.0 instead of a later version which includes Linq.

Would it be irresponsible to speculate that this article is directly responsible for the inclusion of Linq in C#? It would be irresponsible not to speculate!


LINQ was introduced by Erik Meijer, an Haskell researcher working on .NET team.
