14.6. Summary

You covered quite a bit of ground in this chapter. You should have a pretty good idea of what a database is, how one can be created and expanded, and how otherwise to manipulate the data within the database. You also got a brief introduction to LINQ, which brings a lot of SQL query functionality to data structures other than databases. I encourage you to experiment with the sample programs in this chapter and try to create a different database on your own. Once you have done that, add data to the tables so they use LINQ instead of SQL to query the database. This should solidify your understanding of the database concepts in this chapter as well as LINQ.
