Selecting x number of elements from a System.Collections.Generic.List c#

Question

What i need is a way to select the last 100 elements from a list, as list

    public List<Model.PIP> GetPIPList()
    {
        if (Repository.PIPRepository.PIPList == null)
            Repository.PIPRepository.Load();
        return Repository.PIPRepository.PIPList.Take(100);

    }

I get error like this

'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable' to 'System.Collections.Generic.List'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

Answer 1

somelist.Reverse().Take(100).Reverse().ToList();

This would be much cheaper than ordering :) Also preserves the original ordering.
