What is the linq equivalent to the SQL IN operator

With linq I have to check if a value of a row is present in an array.
The equivalent of the sql query:

WHERE ID IN (2,3,4,5)

How can I do it?

Solution

  • .Contains

    var resultset = from x in collection where new[] {2,3,4,5}.Contains(x) select x

    Of course, with your simple problem, you could have something like:

    var resultset = from x in collection where x >= 2 && x <= 5 select x
