The following code example demonstrates how to use Average(Of TSource)(IEnumerable(Of TSource), Func(Of TSource, Int32)) to calculate an average.
' Create an array of strings. Dim fruits() As String = {"apple", "banana", "mango", "orange", "passionfruit", "grape"} ' Determine the average length of the strings in the array. Dim avg As Double = fruits.Average(Function(s) s.Length) ' Display the output. MsgBox("The average string length is " & avg) ' This code produces the following output: ' ' The average string length is 6.5
