C_sharp : The definition System.Linq.ILookUp readsSince IEnumerable is covariant in IGrouping < TKey , TElement > , IGrouping < TKey , TElement > is covariant in TElement and the interface only exposes TElement as a return type , I would assume that ILookup is also covariant in TElement . Indeed , the definitioncompile...

C_sharp : I have a problem where I want a group type to be strongly typed but if I do it does n't group correctly . See the code below ... The output : I would expect the result to be the same regardless of using an explicit type nor not i.e . should only be one group with 3 items not 3 groups with 1 item . What is goi...
Why does using anonymous type work and using an explicit type not in a GroupBy ?
