linq Right Outer Joins

Join when using LINQ. There are no keywords defined in C#, we have to use DefaultIfEmpty() function to get the desired result.

private void RightOuterJoins()
        {
            Tag = "Right Outer Joins";
            Person bhaumik = new Person { FirstName = "Bhaumik", LastName = "Patel" };
            Person hardik = new Person { FirstName = "Hardik", LastName = "Patel" };
            Person manan = new Person { FirstName = "Manan", LastName = "Bhavsar" };
            Person vishal = new Person { FirstName = "Vishal", LastName = "Gorasia" };

            Pet patel = new Pet { Name = "Patel", Owner = hardik };
            Pet hardik1 = new Pet { Name = "Hardik", Owner = hardik };
            Pet sonu = new Pet { Name = "Sonu", Owner = manan };
            Pet gorasia = new Pet { Name = "Gorasia", Owner = hardik };
            Pet patel1 = new Pet { Name = "Patel", Owner = bhaumik };

            // Create two lists.
            List<Person> people = new List<Person> { bhaumik, hardik, manan, vishal };
            List<Pet> pets = new List<Pet> { patel, hardik1, sonu, gorasia, patel1 };

            var rightOuterJoin = from pet in pets
                                 join person in people on pet.Name equals person.FirstName into temp
                                 from person in temp.DefaultIfEmpty()
                                 select new
                                 {
                                     PatName = pet.Name,
                                     FirstName = person != null ? person.FirstName : default(string), // person.FirstName,
                                     LastName = person != null ? person.LastName : default(string),
                                 };

            grdView.DataSource = rightOuterJoin.ToList();
            grdView.DataBind();
        }

Person and Pet Class

class Person
    {
        public string FirstName { get; set; }
        public string LastName { get; set; }
    }

    class Pet
    {
