| Tech Tip - Using LINQ Aggregate Functions | |||||||||
|
While working on an upcoming demo, we had a need to get a count of appointments of a particular type. In fleshing this concept out, we needed a few for-each-loops to determine what "apptTypes" were on a given day and then get a count of each. This sounded like it might be a good challenge for LINQ. Instead of making a hash table or key-pair dictionary we looked at some of the ways we could achieve what we were after. A quick test class to mimic a dbiAppointment with an apptType property and one LINQ statement to get the counts, then a second to get a total, and voila, we had all the information we needed in a very tidy code block.
VB6 Sample Code Public StartDate As Date Public EndDate As Date Public ID As Guid Public ApptType As Long Public Sub New() ID = Guid.NewGuid End Sub End Class Public ApptColl As New System.Collections.Generic.List(Of PaulAppt) Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim curLINQ = From Appt In ApptColl _ Group Appt By Appt.ApptType Into Count() _ Select ApptType, TotalAppts = Count For Each obj In curLINQ Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(obj.ApptType.ToString + " | " + obj.TotalAppts.ToString) Next Dim sumLineTotal = (From curItem In curLINQ _ Select curItem.TotalAppts).Sum Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(sumLineTotal.ToString) End Sub |

| LINQ rocks. | |||||||||
