How can I write Take(1) in query syntax

Question

Is it possible to write `IQueryable<MyObject> = query.Take(1)` or something equivalent in LINQ query syntax. I'm using C# 5 and EF 5.

Accepted Answer

There is no equivalent to `Take` in the query expression syntax for LINQ in C#. The only methods that have query expression equivalents are

```
Where,
Select,
SelectMany,
Join,
GroupJoin,
OrderBy,
OrderByDescending,
ThenBy,
ThenByDescending,
GroupBy,
Cast
```

This is from §7.16.2 of the specification.
