In vb.net there is a weird approach that you can use the function name as the result variable..

example:

Function Foo(ByVal bar As Integer) As List(Of Integer)
    Foo = New List(Of Integer)
    Foo.Add(bar + 1)
End Function

As far as i know, in C# you have to:

List<int> foo(int bar) 
{
     var result = new List<int>();
     result.Add(bar + 1);
     return result;
}

I'm not sure if it's by design or i just don't know the right way to do this.. Please enlight me!

Thanks in advance, Eitan.
