Question

Is there a rapid and simple way to obtain a List<DateTime> given start and end dates?

I obviously know that I can achieve this by a loop, but I’m wondering if there is a smarter method using Linq or some other utility.

NOTE I need to get a DateTime instance for every single day between two given dates.

You can do like this to get a list from startDate to endDate:

List<DateTime> dates =
  Enumerable.Range(0, (int)((endDate - startDate).TotalDays) + 1)
  .Select(n => startDate.AddDays(n))
  .ToList();
