✅ Remove Foreach

Any idea how i could eliminate this foreach contraption here? I expect to have a lot of (a bit more complicated) expressions there and i want to keep in somewhot compact.

var d = str.Select(i => string.Join(string.Empty, i))
    .ToList();

var d = str.Select(i => string.Join(string.Empty, i))
    .ToList();

also next time, post $code instead of a screenshot :)

what is e for there? just bad example i guess? ah, Chunk returns a char[][]... yeah just use new string(x) or string.Concat(x), not string.Join("", x)
