[Solved] Identify the error in this code snippet:var nums = new List<int> { 4, 2, 7 }; var sorted = nums.OrderBy(n => n); sorted.Sort(); | C Sharp (C#)

C Sharp (C#) - LINQ Fundamentals

Identify the error in this code snippet:

var nums = new List<int> { 4, 2, 7 };
var sorted = nums.OrderBy(n => n);
sorted.Sort();

AList<int> does not support OrderBy

BOrderBy returns IEnumerable, which has no Sort method

CSort method requires a lambda expression

DOrderBy modifies the original list, so Sort is redundant

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand return type of OrderBy
OrderBy returns an IEnumerable<T>, not a List<T>.
Step 2: Check if IEnumerable has Sort method
IEnumerable does not have a Sort method, so calling sorted.Sort() causes an error.
Final Answer:
OrderBy returns IEnumerable, which has no Sort method -> Option B
Quick Check:
OrderBy returns IEnumerable, no Sort method [OK]

Quick Trick: OrderBy returns IEnumerable, not List; no Sort method [OK]
