Queryable.Average Method (IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int32)))
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Computes the average of a sequence of nullable Int32 values.
Assembly: System.Core (in System.Core.dll)
'Declaration <ExtensionAttribute> _ Public Shared Function Average ( _ source As IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Integer)) _ ) As Nullable(Of Double)
Parameters
- source
- Type: System.Linq.IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int32))
A sequence of nullable Int32values to calculate the average of.
Return Value
Type: System.Nullable(Of Double)The average of the sequence of values, or Nothing if the source sequence is empty or contains only Nothing values.
Usage Note
In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int32)). When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter.| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | source is Nothing. |
The Average(IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int32))) method generates a MethodCallExpression that represents calling Average(IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int32))) itself. It then passes the MethodCallExpression to the Execute(Of TResult)(Expression) method of the IQueryProvider represented by the Provider property of the source parameter.
The query behavior that occurs as a result of executing an expression tree that represents calling Average(IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int32))) depends on the implementation of the type of the source parameter. The expected behavior is that it calculates the average of the values in source.
The following code example demonstrates how to use Average(IQueryable(Of Nullable(Of Int64))) to calculate the average of a sequence of values.

This code example uses an overload of this overloaded method that is different from the specific overload that this topic describes. To extend the example to this topic, substitute the elements of the source sequence with elements of the appropriate numerical type. |
