            new XElement("Title", "Artifacts of Roman Civilization"),

            new XElement("Title", "Midieval Tools and Implements"),
            new XElement("Author", "Gazit, Inbar")
        )
    ),
    new XComment("This is another comment.")
);
Console.WriteLine(doc.Root.Name.ToString());
Dim doc As XDocument = _
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
    <!--This is a comment.-->
    <Pubs>
        <Book>
            <Title>Artifacts of Roman Civilization</Title>
            <Author>Moreno, Jordao</Author>
        </Book>
        <Book>
            <Title>Midieval Tools and Implements</Title>
            <Author>Gazit, Inbar</Author>
        </Book>
        <!--This is another comment.-->
    </Pubs>

Console.WriteLine(doc.Root.Name.ToString())

This example produces the following output:

Pubs

Remarks

This property is useful when you want to compose LINQ to XML queries in the same context as when composing them for a tree rooted in XElement. See Query an XDocument vs. query an XElement for more details.
