VB.Net – SkipWhile() LINQ Extension Method

In this program, we will use SkipWhile() LINQ extension method. This method is used to skip records till the specified condition is true.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to demonstrate the SkipWhile() LINQ extension method is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

        Public id As Integer
        Public name As String
        Public age As Integer
        Public salary As Integer
    End Class

    Sub Main()
        Dim empList = New List(Of Employee) From
        {
            New Employee() With {.id = 101, .name = "Amit", .age = 21, .salary = 5000},
            New Employee() With {.id = 102, .name = "Arun", .age = 22, .salary = 7000},
            New Employee() With {.id = 103, .name = "Aman", .age = 23, .salary = 6000},
            New Employee() With {.id = 104, .name = "Amar", .age = 21, .salary = 6700},
            New Employee() With {.id = 105, .name = "Akki", .age = 26, .salary = 7500},
            New Employee() With {.id = 105, .name = "Anuj", .age = 23, .salary = 8700}
        }

        Dim Result = empList.SkipWhile(Function(e) e.salary < 7000)

        Console.WriteLine("Employees: ")
        For Each emp In Result
            Console.WriteLine(emp.id & " " & emp.name & " " & emp.age & " " & emp.salary)
        Next
    End Sub
End Module

Output

Employees:
102 Arun 22 7000
103 Aman 23 6000
104 Amar 21 6700
105 Akki 26 7500
105 Anuj 23 8700

Explanation

In the above program, we created a module Module1 that contains Employee class and a Main() function.  The Employee class contains the data member id, name, age, and salary.

The Main() function is the entry point for the program. In the Main() function, we created a list of employees and then skip the employee records in the collection till the specified condition is true using SkipWhile() LINQ extension method and after that, we printed the result on the console screen.
