                      {Day: "Monday", Quantity: 20},

can we create something like the above in C#. if yes, please how? thanks...

Answer 1

var sampledata = new[] {
    new { Day = "Sunday",  Quantity = 15 },
    new { Day = "Monday",  Quantity = 20 },
    new { Day = "Tuesday", Quantity = 80 }
};

try a Array or a List of anonymous Types (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/en-en/library/bb397696.aspx)

Answer 2

Use object and array together?

class Order
{
    public String Day;
    public int    Quantity;
}

Order[] orderArray = new Order[3];
orderArray[0].Date = "Sunday";
orderArray[0].Quantity = 15;
