The current project I am working on has been my first chance to work with .NET 2.0 in a real world environment and I have to say that I am really digging the generic list functions. Check out the hockey player class below:

public class HockeyPlayer
{
        private int number;
        private string name;
        private int age;
        private string position;

        public HockeyPlayer(int number, string name, int age, string position)
        {
            this.number = number;
            this.name = name;
            this.age = age;
            this.position = position;
        }

        public int Number
        {
            get { return number; }
            set { number = value; }
        }

        public string Name
        {
            get { return name; }
            set { name = value; }
        }

        public int Age
        {
            get { return age; }
            set { age = value; }
        }

        public string Position
        {
            get { return position; }
            set { position = value; }
        }
}

An easy way of finding all draft eligble players (players over 18 year of age) in a list is to take advantage of delegates and the methods in the generic list class:

[Test]
public void ShouldFindAllDraftEligibleHockeyPlayers()
{
     List<HockeyPlayer> hockeyPlayers = new List<HockeyPlayer>();
           
     hockeyPlayers.Add(new HockeyPlayer(10, "Angelo Esposito", 17, "Left Wing"));
     hockeyPlayers.Add(new HockeyPlayer(9, "Andrew Cogliano", 19, "Left Wing"));
     hockeyPlayers.Add(new HockeyPlayer(10, "Jonathan Toews", 18, "Center"));
     hockeyPlayers.Add(new HockeyPlayer(24, "Sam Gagner", 17, "Right Wing"));
            
     List<HockeyPlayer> draftEligiblePlayers = 
         hockeyPlayers.FindAll(delegate(HockeyPlayer player)
                               {
                                    return player.Age < 18;
                               });
           
     Assert.AreEqual(draftEligiblePlayers.Count, 2);
}

The delegate method searches through the list and finds all draft eligible players, this saves you the time of creating a for loop to search through the list.
