Returning value on null linq query

Hi I have following linq query

var query=DbContext.Set<tasksList>()
Select(u=> new { tasks= u.description});

What I want to do is as it iterates through if description is null to return some other value for example return just 1 or anything. Please let me know how to achieve this Thanks

You could use the null coalescing operator.

var query = DbContext.Set<tasksList>()
                  .Select(u=> new { tasks= u.description ?? "just 1 or anything"});
