C# Enumerable Sum(IEnumerable, Func>)

Description

Computes the sum of the sequence of nullable Single values that are obtained by invoking a transform function on each element of the input sequence.

Syntax


public static Nullable<float> Sum<TSource>(
  this IEnumerable<TSource> source,
  Func<TSource, Nullable<float>> selector
)

Parameters

  • TSource - The type of the elements of source.
  • source - A sequence of values that are used to calculate a sum.
  • selector - A transform function to apply to each element.

Example


using System;/*  w w  w  .  j  a v a 2 s  . c o  m*/
using System.Linq;
using System.Collections.Generic;
public class MainClass
{
    public static void Main(String[] argv)
    {
        List<Package> packages =
            new List<Package> 
           { new Package { Company = "A", Weight = 2.5F },
             new Package { Company = "B", Weight = 1.8F },
             new Package { Company = "C", Weight = 6.1F },
             new Package { Company = "D", Weight = 3.3F } };

        Console.WriteLine("The total weight of the packages is: {0}", packages.Sum(pkg => pkg.Weight));

    }
}

class Package
{
    public string Company { get; set; }
    public float? Weight { get; set; }
}

The code above generates the following result.
