Syntax
public static int Operate(
	Func<int, int> func,
	int operand
)

Parameters

func
Type: SystemFuncInt32, Int32
The function.
operand
Type: SystemInt32
The operand.

Type: Int32
The result of the operation.
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentNullExceptionfunc is null.
Examples

In the following example, an integer is squared executing the Operate(FuncInt32, Int32, Int32) method. In addition, input validation is also checked.

C#
using System;
namespace SampleClassLibrary.CodeExamples
{
    public class IntegerOperationExample  
    {
        public void Main() 
        {
            // Define an operator that squares its operand
            Func<int, int> square = (int operand) => operand * operand;

            // Define an operand
            int integer = 2;

            // Operate on it
            Console.WriteLine("Squaring {0}...", integer);
            int result = IntegerOperation.Operate(square, integer);
            Console.WriteLine("...the result is {0}.", result);

            // Check that an operator cannot be null
            try
            {
                IntegerOperation.Operate(null, 0);
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine();
                Console.WriteLine("Cannot apply a null function:");
                Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
            }
        }
    }
}

// Executing method Main() produces the following output:
// 
// Squaring 2...
// ...the result is 4.
// 
// Cannot apply a null function:
// Value cannot be null.
// Parameter name: func
