Getting Nth value with Linq

var nthItem = items.Skip(n).First();

You can use skip and take.

var result = myData.OrderBy(<your order by>).Skip(5).Take(1);

An alternative (.Net 3.5 and later) is to use ElementAtOrDefault.

var nthItem = items.ElementAtOrDefault(n-1);

The method's index is zero-based, so if you want the third element, you pass 2 for the index.
