-
Type:

The type of the elements of source.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | source is null. |
| OverflowException | The number of elements in source is larger than MaxValue. |
If the type of source implements ICollection<'T>, that implementation is used to obtain the count of elements. Otherwise, this method determines the count.
Use the LongCount<'TSource> method when you expect and want to allow the result to be greater than MaxValue.
In Visual Basic query expression syntax, an Aggregate Into Count() clause translates to an invocation of Count.
