Remarks

This method has at least one parameter of type Expression<TDelegate> whose type argument is one of the Func<T,TResult> types. For these parameters, you can pass in a lambda expression and it will be compiled to an Expression<TDelegate>.

The Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Nullable<Int64>>>) method generates a MethodCallExpression that represents calling Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Nullable<Int64>>>) itself as a constructed generic method. It then passes the MethodCallExpression to the Execute<TResult>(Expression) method of the IQueryProvider represented by the Provider property of the source parameter.

The query behavior that occurs as a result of executing an expression tree that represents calling Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Nullable<Int64>>>) depends on the implementation of the type of the source parameter. The expected behavior is that it invokes selector on each element of source and returns the sum of the resulting values.

Public Function Sum(Of TSource) (source As IQueryable(Of TSource), selector As Expression(Of Func(Of TSource, Decimal))) As Decimal

Type Parameters

TSource

The type of the elements of source.

Parameters

source

IQueryable<TSource>

A sequence of values of type TSource.

selector

Expression<Func<TSource,Decimal>>

A projection function to apply to each element.

Returns

Decimal

The sum of the projected values.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

source or selector is null.

OverflowException

The sum is larger than Decimal.MaxValue.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Double>>) to sum the projected values of a sequence.

Note

This code example uses an overload of the method that's different from the specific overload that this article describes. To extend the example to the overload that this article describes, change the body of the selector function.

class Package
{
    public string Company { get; set; }
    public double Weight { get; set; }
}

public static void SumEx3()
{
    List<Package> packages =
        new List<Package>
            { new Package { Company = "Coho Vineyard", Weight = 25.2 },
              new Package { Company = "Lucerne Publishing", Weight = 18.7 },
              new Package { Company = "Wingtip Toys", Weight = 6.0 },
              new Package { Company = "Adventure Works", Weight = 33.8 } };

    // Calculate the sum of all package weights.
    double totalWeight = packages.AsQueryable().Sum(pkg => pkg.Weight);

    Console.WriteLine("The total weight of the packages is: {0}", totalWeight);
}

/*
    This code produces the following output:

    The total weight of the packages is: 83.7
*/

Structure Package
    Public Company As String
    Public Weight As Double
End Structure

Shared Sub SumEx3()
    Dim packages As New List(Of Package)(New Package() { _
            New Package With {.Company = "Coho Vineyard", .Weight = 25.2}, _
              New Package With {.Company = "Lucerne Publishing", .Weight = 18.7}, _
              New Package With {.Company = "Wingtip Toys", .Weight = 6.0}, _
              New Package With {.Company = "Adventure Works", .Weight = 33.8}})

    ' Calculate the sum of all package weights.
    Dim totalWeight As Double = packages.AsQueryable().Sum(Function(pkg) pkg.Weight)

    MsgBox("The total weight of the packages is: " & totalWeight)
End Sub

'This code produces the following output:

'The total weight of the packages is: 83.7

Remarks

This method has at least one parameter of type Expression<TDelegate> whose type argument is one of the Func<T,TResult> types. For these parameters, you can pass in a lambda expression and it will be compiled to an Expression<TDelegate>.

The Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Decimal>>) method generates a MethodCallExpression that represents calling Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Decimal>>) itself as a constructed generic method. It then passes the MethodCallExpression to the Execute<TResult>(Expression) method of the IQueryProvider represented by the Provider property of the source parameter.

The query behavior that occurs as a result of executing an expression tree that represents calling Sum<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource,Decimal>>) depends on the implementation of the type of the source parameter. The expected behavior is that it invokes selector on each element of source and returns the sum of the resulting values.
