C# Querying With LINQ Functional Programming in C# Actions and Funcs

At a loss for what needs to be done here.

Even looking at the documentation on MSDN I can't figure this out. Have no idea how to do what I'm being asked to do here. Re-watching the video doesn't help at all.

Program.cs 
using System;

namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    public class Program
    {
       public Func<int, int> Square = delegate (int number)
       {
           return number * number;
       };


    }
}

Thought it would show which challenge it was. Speaking of Challenge Task 2 of 3.

Create a public Action field named DisplayResult that takes an int parameter and a Func<int, int> parameter. Initialize it with an anonymous method delegate that takes an int result parameter, and a Func<int, int> named operation.

It's not too different from what you did in task 1, you just translate the description in the challenge into code. This one just has a few more components to it. I would normally suggest re-watching the video, but you did that already.

You would end up with something like this:

:warning:SPOILER ALERT

    public Action<int, Func<int, int>> DisplayResult = delegate (int result, Func<int, int> operation)  
    {
    };

had the parenthesis in the wrong spot.

public Action<int, Func<int, int>> DisplayResult = delegate(int result, Func<int, int>) operation vs public Action<int, Func<int, int>> DisplayResult = delegate(int result, Func<int, int> operation)

and forgot the curly braces....been a long day.

Thanks for the help Steven
