The way I understand is that things that can be done with anonymous method can also be done with delegate. There is no particular case that has to be used the anonymous method.

List<int> nonPrimeNumbers = numbers.FindAll(i => primeNumbers.Contains(i));

string[] mlines = new string[3];  // 3 is its size

mlines[0] = "xyz";

System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection yourStringCollection = new System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection();
yourStringCollection.Add("addedText");
