There are two extension methods for joining and grouping:
- Join: This method has four parameters: the sequence that you want to join with, the property or properties on the left sequence to match on, the property or properties on the right sequence to match on, and a projection

In the Main method, write the following statements:
// create two sequences that we want to join together var categories = db.Categories.Select( c => new { c.CategoryID, c.CategoryName }).ToArray(); var products = db.Products.Select( p => new { p.ProductID, ...
