Is there any feature similar to LINQ (.NET) in different languages like JAVA, PHP, etc?
There are many languages that have syntax or library functions for operating on sequences of objects in a mostly functional way. For example Python has lambda functions, list comprehensions, generators, and the
itertoolsmodule.However I don’t know of any language that can get anywhere near everything that LINQ can do as cleanly and concisely. Remember that LINQ is not just a way to operate on in-memory structures – LINQ has many providers that share a similar interface:
Microsoft have done a good job with LINQ. I am sure some other languages will take inspiration from the success of LINQ and consider how to add similar features in the near future.
