| MinBy<TSource,TKey>(IEnumerable<TSource>, Func<TSource,TKey>) |
Returns the minimum value in a generic sequence according to a specified key selector function. |

Returns the minimum value in a generic sequence according to a specified key selector function and key comparer. |
MinBy<TSource,TKey>(IEnumerable<TSource>, Func<TSource,TKey>)
Returns the minimum value in a generic sequence according to a specified key selector function.
public:
generic <typename TSource, typename TKey>
[System::Runtime::CompilerServices::Extension]
static TSource MinBy(System::Collections::Generic::IEnumerable<TSource> ^ source, Func<TSource, TKey> ^ keySelector);public static TSource? MinBy<TSource,TKey> (this System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<TSource> source, Func<TSource,TKey> keySelector);static member MinBy : seq<'Source> * Func<'Source, 'Key> -> 'Source<Extension()>
Public Function MinBy(Of TSource, TKey) (source As IEnumerable(Of TSource), keySelector As Func(Of TSource, TKey)) As TSourceType Parameters
- TSource
The type of the elements of source.
- TKey
The type of key to compare elements by.
Parameters
- source
- IEnumerable<TSource>
A sequence of values to determine the minimum value of.
- keySelector
- Func<TSource,TKey>
A function to extract the key for each element.
Returns
- TSource
The value with the minimum key in the sequence.
Exceptions
source is null.
No key extracted from source implements the IComparable or IComparable<T> interface.
Remarks
If TKey is a reference type and the source sequence is empty or contains only values that are null, this method returns null.
