Subscribing for events using lambda expressions

There are two kinds of classes in the event, they are publishers and subscribers. The publisher is a class or object that sends (or raises) the event, while the subscriber is a class or object that receives (or handles) the event. Fortunately, lambda expressions can also be used to handle events. Let's take a look at the following code to discuss events further:

public class EventClassWithoutEvent 
{ 
  public Action OnChange { get; set; } 
  public void Raise() 
  { 
    if (OnChange != null) 
    { 
      OnChange();

} 

The preceding code can be found in the EventsInLambda.csproj project. As we ...
