String Query Operations

FluentQuery supports the following operations when querying strings from a container (eg, a TStrings, or a TList<Strings>):

Operation	Bound	Unbound	Terminating	Description
Contains	Yes	Yes		Enumerates string that contain the supplied string.
EndsWith	Yes	Yes		Enumerates strings that end with the supplied string.
First	Yes	Yes		Enumerate the first string, ignoring the remainder.
Skip	Yes	Yes		Skip will bypass the specified number of strings from the start of the enumeration, after which it will enumerate the remaining strings as normal.
From		Yes		From allows you to specify the source of the data you are querying. It is also From which transforms an Unbound Query into a Bound Query.
Matches	Yes	Yes		Enumerates strings that match the supplied string.
Predicate		Yes	Yes	Returns a TPredicate<String> encapsulating the supplied Unbound Query logic.
SkipWhile	Yes	Yes		SkipWhile will bypass strings at the start of the enumeration while the supplied Predicate evaluates True. Once the Predicate evaluates false, all remaining strings will be enumerated as normal.
StartsWith	Yes	Yes		Enumerates strings that start with the supplied string.
Take	Yes	Yes		Take will enumerate up to the specified number of strings, then ignore the remainder.
TakeWhile	Yes	Yes		TakeWhile will continue enumerating strings while the supplied Predicate evaluates True, after which it will ignore the remaining strings.
ToTStrings	Yes		Yes	Returns a TStrings object containing the Strings that match the query
Where	Yes	Yes		Filter the strings enumerated to only those that evaluate true when passed into the supplied Predicate

Note, all String Query Operations can be either case-sensitive or case-insensitive, but are case-insensitive by default.
