Get Max value from List

Question

I have List List, my type contains Age and RandomID

Now I want to find the maximum age from this list.

What

Answer 1

Easiest way is to use System.Linq as previously described

using System.Linq;

public int GetHighestValue(List list)
{
    return list.Count > 0 ? list.Max(t => t.Age) : 0; //could also return -1
}

This is also possible with a Dictionary

using System.Linq;

public int GetHighestValue(Dictionary obj)
{
    return obj.Count > 0 ? obj.Max(t => t.Key.Age) : 0; //could also return -1
}
