I have a collection of boxes with the properties weight, volume and owner.
I want to use LINQ to get a summarized list (by owner) of the box information
e.g.
var ListByOwner = list.GroupBy(l => l.Owner)
.Select(lg =>
new {
Owner = lg.Key,
Boxes = lg.Count(),
TotalWeight = lg.Sum(w => w.Weight),
TotalVolume = lg.Sum(w => w.Volume)
});
var boxSummary = from b in boxes
group b by b.Owner into g
let nrBoxes = g.Count()
let totalWeight = g.Sum(w => w.Weight)
let totalVolume = g.Sum(v => v.Volume)
select new { Owner = g.Key, Boxes = nrBoxes,
TotalWeight = totalWeight,
TotalVolume = totalVolume }
var q = from b in listOfBoxes
group b by b.Owner into g
select new
{
Owner = g.Key,
Boxes = g.Count(),
TotalWeight = g.Sum(item => item.Weight),
TotalVolume = g.Sum(item => item.Volume)
};
