I am curious why C# allows me to ignore delegate parameters in some cases but not others.
For instance this is permitted:
Action<int> action = delegate { Console.WriteLine("delegate"); };
but this is not:
Action<int> action = () => Console.WriteLine("lambda");
Is there a way to initialize a delegate and ignore the parameters using a lambda? I know that I can add a single parameter to the lambda and fix the previous line but this is more of an academic question pertaining to the compiler and why or how this works.
