Explore LINQ sorting techniques in C# by learning to use OrderBy and ThenBy for multi-level sorting. Understand how to apply Order and OrderDescending introduced in .NET 7 for simpler ordering operations. This lesson helps you organize and display data sequences efficiently using LINQ extension methods.

Other commonly used extension methods are OrderBy and ThenBy, used for sorting a sequence. Extension methods can be chained if the previous method returns another sequence, a type that implements the IEnumerable<T> interface.

Sorting by a single property using OrderBy

Let’s continue working with the current project to explore sorting:

Step 1: Append a call to OrderBy to the end of the existing query, ...
