Queryable.Distinct Method

Definition

Returns distinct elements from a sequence.

Overloads

Distinct<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>)

Returns distinct elements from a sequence by using the default equality comparer to compare values.

Distinct<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, IEqualityComparer<TSource>)

Returns distinct elements from a sequence by using a specified IEqualityComparer<T> to compare values.

Source:
Queryable.cs

Returns distinct elements from a sequence by using the default equality comparer to compare values.

public:
generic <typename TSource>
[System::Runtime::CompilerServices::Extension]
 static System::Linq::IQueryable<TSource> ^ Distinct(System::Linq::IQueryable<TSource> ^ source);
public static System.Linq.IQueryable<TSource> Distinct<TSource> (this System.Linq.IQueryable<TSource> source);
static member Distinct : System.Linq.IQueryable<'Source> -> System.Linq.IQueryable<'Source>
<Extension()>
Public Function Distinct(Of TSource) (source As IQueryable(Of TSource)) As IQueryable(Of TSource)

Type Parameters

TSource

The type of the elements of source.

Parameters

source
IQueryable<TSource>

The IQueryable<T> to remove duplicates from.

Returns

IQueryable<TSource>

An IQueryable<T> that contains distinct elements from source.

Exceptions

source is null.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use Distinct<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>) to return distinct elements from a sequence.

List<int> ages = new List<int> { 21, 46, 46, 55, 17, 21, 55, 55 };

IEnumerable<int> distinctAges = ages.AsQueryable().Distinct();

Console.WriteLine("Distinct ages:");

foreach (int age in distinctAges)
    Console.WriteLine(age);

/*
    This code produces the following output:

    Distinct ages:
    21
    46
    55
    17
*/
Dim ages As List(Of Integer) = New List(Of Integer)(New Integer() {21, 46, 46, 55, 17, 21, 55, 55})

Dim distinctAges As IEnumerable(Of Integer) = ages.AsQueryable().Distinct()

Dim output As New System.Text.StringBuilder
output.AppendLine("Distinct ages:")

For Each age As Integer In distinctAges
    output.AppendLine(age)
Next

' Display the output.
MsgBox(output.ToString())

' This code produces the following output:
'
' Distinct(ages)
' 21
' 46
' 55
' 17

Remarks

The Distinct<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>) method generates a MethodCallExpression that represents calling Distinct<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>) itself as a constructed generic method. It then passes the MethodCallExpression to the CreateQuery<TElement>(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 Distinct<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>) depends on the implementation of the type of the source parameter. The expected behavior is that it returns an unordered sequence of the unique items in source.
