如何使用LINQ方法语法计算子集合的项目数？

Question

Let's say I have a schema, representing Question entities. Each question can be voted up, voted down or, of course, not voted at all - just like here in StackOverflow. I want to get the number of voteups for a given user.

int number = (from q in userDbContext.Questions
              from qv in q.QuestionVotes
              where qv.IsVoteUp
              select qv).Count();

I want to write the same query, but using Method Syntax. How do I do this with the same example?

Answer 1

您可以使用SelectMany ：

userDbContext.Questions.SelectMany(x => x.QuestionVotes).Count(x => x.IsVoteUp);

Answer 2

It must work:

  int number =  userDbContext.Questions
                             .Select(x => x.QuestionVotes.Count(y => y.IsVoteUp))
                             .Sum();

It will get the count of filtered child items for each parent. Then Sum() will compute the sum of these values.

Answer 3

This LINQ query demonstrates how to do that using 3 level structure tree > branch > leaf as an example .

So the code below gives you the number of the leaves from all branches of all trees (all or only colored with the given color):

public class Calculator
{
    public int CountAllLeafsOn(List<Tree> trees, string сolor = null)
    {
        // Count the leafs (all from all branches of all trees, or only if they are colored with the provided color)
        return сolor == null 
            ? trees.Sum(tree => tree.Branches.Sum(branch => branch.Leaves.Count)) 
            : trees.Sum(tree => tree.Branches.Sum(branch => branch.Leaves.Count(leaf => leaf.Color.Equals(сolor))));
    }
}

public class Tree
{
    public List<Branch> Branches { get; set; }
}

public class Branch
{
    public List<Leaf> Leaves { get; set; }
}

public class Leaf
{
    public string Color { get; set; }
}

Hope that helps.

You can count children using Where like this:

foreach (YourCollectionType item in datagrid.Items)
{
     var children = datagrid.ItemsSource.OfType<YourCollectionType>().Where(x => x.Item1 == item.Item1 && x.Item2 == item.Item2 && x.Item3 == item.Item3 && x.Item4 == item.Item4);

     item.Results = children.Count();
     Trace.TraceInformation(item.Results.ToString());

}
