How are Standard Query Operators implemented in LINQ?

Standard Query Operators are implemented as extension methods in .NET Framework. These Standard Query Operators can be used to work with any collection of objects that implements the IEnumerable interface. A class that inherits from the IEnumerable interface must provide an enumerator for iterating over a collection of a specific type. All arrays implement IEnumerable. Also, most of the generic collection classes implement IEnumerable interface.
