Why anonymous type are immutable in c#? [duplicate]

Question

Why are the properties of anonymous types in C# read-only?

I wrote something like this,

 var suspense = new { Name = "Android", Market = string.Empty };
 suspense.Market = "Potential";

.NET throws error

Property or indexer 'AnonymousType#1.Market' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only

I know that AnonymousTypes in C# are immutable, but why? Is this due to some limitation with CLR?

Answer 1

The motivating factor for driving the immutable anonymous types was because the LINQ APIs used hash tables internally and returning projections of anonymous types that could be modified was a dangerous situation.
