Question

I am working on a silverlight application and i figured there is no Find extension method for a List

say,

List<Something> list = new List<Something>(something);
list.Remove(list.Find(e => e.id == 10));

there isn’t Find extension method am i missing something?

Answer 1

It was not included to reduce the size of the runtime.

It is recommended you use LINQ extensions instead, such as First or FirstOrDefault:

using System.Linq;

...

List<Something> list = new List<Something>(something);
list.Remove(list.First(e => e.id == 10));
