LinQ query to select multiple data in one row
I have the following two data tables.
Table: Pond
Pond_ID Pond_Owner
01 Nasir
02 John
Table: Fish
Pond_ID Fish_Name
01 Koi
01 Carp
02 Cat Fish
02 Gold Fish
02 Comet
02 Magur
It is noted that the Pond_ID field is the primary key in the pond table and the foreign key in the fish table . Now I would like to write a LinQ Query to the result like below.
Expected Result
Pond_ID Pond_Owner Fish_Name
01 Nasir Koi, Carp
02 John Cat Fish, Gold Fish, Comet, Magur
So anyone can help me write this linQ query. Thanks in advance.

You need to group them by PondID and OwnerName :
var result = from p in db.pond
join f in db.Fish on p.Pond_Id equals f.Pond_Id
group f by new
{
f.Pond_Id,
f.Owner_name
} into g
select new
{
Owner = g.Key.Owner_Name,
Fishes = String.Join(",",g.Select(x=>x.Fish_Name))
}
then iterating over the result set:
foreach(var item in result)
{
Console.WrtieLine(String.Format("Owner Name : {0} , Fishes : {1}",item.Owner,item.Fishes))
}
Strike>
UPDATE:
var result = from p in db.pond
join f in db.Fish on p.PondID equals f.PondID
group f by new { f.PondID,p.OwnerName } into g
select new { Owner = g.Key.OwnerName, Fishes = String.Join(",",g.Select(x=>x.FishName))};
foreach(var item in result)
{
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Owner : {0} and Fishses : {1}",item.Owner,item.Fishes));
}

You can do union operations in LINQ, for example:
var result = (from p in dbContext.Pond
join f in dbContext.Fish
on p.Pond_ID == f.Pond_ID
select new
{
Pond_ID = p.Pond_ID,
Pond_Owner = p.Pond_Owner,
Fish_Name = f.Fish_Name
}).ToList();
A full connection will be performed above the request. If you want to do a left outer join, you can perform the same operation using DefaultIfEmpty()
like:
var result = (from p in dbContext.Pond
join f in dbContext.Fish
on p.Pond_ID == f.Pond_ID into group1
from g1 in group1.DefaultIfEmpty()
select new
{
Pond_ID = p.Pond_ID,
Pond_Owner = p.Pond_Owner,
Fish_Name = g1.Fish_Name
}).ToList();
