Enumerable::Sum<TSource> Method (IEnumerable<TSource>, Func<TSource, Double>)

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

Namespace:  System.Linq
Assembly:  System.Core (in System.Core.dll)
[ExtensionAttribute]
public:
generic<typename TSource>
static double Sum(
	IEnumerable<TSource>^ source, 
	Func<TSource, double>^ selector
)

Type Parameters

TSource

The type of the elements of source.

Parameters

source
Type: System.Collections.Generic::IEnumerable<TSource>

A sequence of values that are used to calculate a sum.

selector
Type: System::Func<TSource, Double>

A transform function to apply to each element.

Return Value

Type: System::Double
The sum of the projected values.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IEnumerable<TSource>. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentNullException

source or selector is nullptr.

This method returns zero if source contains no elements.

You can apply this method to a sequence of arbitrary values if you provide a function, selector, that projects the members of source into a numeric type, specifically Double.

In Visual Basic query expression syntax, an Aggregate Into Sum() clause translates to an invocation of Sum.

The following code example demonstrates how to use Sum<TSource>(IEnumerable<TSource>, Func<TSource, Double>) to sum the projected values of a sequence.
