var sortedWords = from w in objlist
orderby w
select w;
Console.WriteLine("The sorted list of words:");
foreach (var w in sortedWords)
{
Console.WriteLine(w);

}
This sample uses orderby and descending to sort a list of doubles from highest to lowest.

List<string> objlist = new List<string> { "Sriram", "TMS", "Ajmal", "Abdul", "Azeez", "Retheesh", "Guru", "Bala", "das" };
var sortedWords = from w in objlist
orderby w descending
select w;
Console.WriteLine("The sorted list of words:");
foreach (var w in sortedWords)
{
Console.WriteLine(w);
