I'm trying following code to update items in a list as follow:

class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var strings = new List<string> { "foo", "foo" };

            var list = strings.Select(x => new Foo { A = x }).ToList();

            list.ForEach(oo => oo.A = "a", oo.B = "B") ;

            foreach (var item in list)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(item.A);
            }
        }

        class Foo
        {
            public string A { get; set; }
            public string B { get; set; }
        }
    }

I'm getting compile time error. What should be a correct syntax.

users.ToList().ForEach(u =>
                      {
                         u.property1 = value1;
                         u.property2 = value2;
                      });
