Question

I have data series, in which every member contains some elements and every element has float variable D representing date in OADate (excel format). I need to find out, if ANY of the series intersects with “neighbours”. So result is one bool.
Is there any way to do this in LINQ ?
This is my current working code

         bool overlaps = false;
        for (int i = 0; i < series.Count-1; i++) {
            if (series[i].elements.Last().D > series[i + 1].elements.First().D) {
                overlaps = true;
                break;
            }           
        }

thanks 🙂

Answer 1

series.Skip(1)
      .Where((s,i) => series[i].elements.Last().D > s.elements.First().D).Any();

Explanation: thus we skipped first element, then series[i] actually will be same as series[i] in your sample, and s will be item at index series[i+1].
