Select N Random Records with Linq

Question

I have a static table with 20+ records, I would like to select N (N<20) from that table in random manner. What is the best way to do it in the code with LINQ?

Accepted Answer

Maybe something like this would work:

```
int randomSkip;
int randomTake;

randomSkip = GenerateSomeAppropriateRandomNumber();
randomTake = GenerateSomeAppropriateRandomNumber();

resultSet = iEnumerable.Skip(randomSkip).Take(randomTake);
```
