LiveAverage<TSource>(View<TSource>,Expression<Func<TSource,Nullable<Int32>>>) Method

Computes the average of a view of nullable System.Int32 values that are obtained by invoking a transform function on each element of the source view.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Shared Function LiveAverage(Of TSource)( _
   ByVal source As View(Of TSource), _
   ByVal selector As System.Linq.Expressions.Expression(Of Func(Of TSource,Nullable(Of Integer))) _
) As AggregationView(Of TSource,Nullable(Of Double))

public static AggregationView<TSource,Nullable<double>> LiveAverage<TSource>( 
   View<TSource> source,
   System.Linq.Expressions.Expression<Func<TSource,Nullable<int>>> selector
)

Parameters

source: A view containing the values to calculate the average of.
selector: A transform function to apply to each element.

Type Parameters

TSource: The type of the elements of source.

Return Value

A view representing the average of the values.

Remarks

If the source is empty, the average value is null.

It is possible to use standard LINQ query operator Average instead of LiveAverage. Both are "live" in the sense that they are recomputed automatically when any change occurs in the source. The difference is that Average will every time loop through the entire source collection and aggregate it from scratch, whereas LiveAverage will use a more performant algorithm, will maintain its value incrementally, processing only those source items that actually changed.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
