Get Top(N-1) records from a List

Question

I am selecting top 3 records from the Database. I want to display last 2 records except first record .How can we do this with C#. i am using asp.net 2.0 ,so cannot use linq .

Answer 1

Won't it be:

List<string> list = new List<string>();
    for (int i = 1; i < 3; i++)
    {
       string s = list[i];
    } 

And if you are sure that it would always be the 2nd and 3rd items only, you can directly refer to them through the index value like: list[1] and list[2]

Answer 2

Why can't you just index into the list. Assuming you have only 3 items in the list:

var item2 = list[1];
var item3 = list[2];

this will give you items 2 and 3. Unless if I misunderstood the question...

Answer 3

for (int i = 1; i < 3; i++)
{
    DisplayData(dataStructure[i]);
}

Answer 4

Sorry I didnt see the "so cannot use linq " part

Add them to a List and use linq Skip

Something similar to

var allButFirst1 = waOrders.Skip(1);
