C# - Selecting Multiple Distinct Values In Database?

Sep 27, 2010

I have this online quiz that generates random questions, but the only problem is that it repeats the previous questions. I have limited questions (I have 10 questions in my table, but I have limited the number of questions to be 5. The output would only display 5 random questions) which I named as RequiredRecords.

question_id
1
3
4

[code].....

I have tried to visit this question, but it doesn't resolve my problem. Below is some of my code and SQL statements I used.

I figured out that there's nothing wrong with my query on creating random questions and I can display it with no duplication, but there's something wrong with my other codes that makes the program having a duplication.

Code Behind using VS2008 3.5
Partial Class Student_DetailView
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Shared TotalRecords As Integer

Selecting Distinct Within LINQ Of Data Rows

Oct 24, 2011

I have a DataTable with about 64 columns, including "UserAnswer", "CorrectAnswer", and "QID_Lookup". I am building a LINQ that will select all the rows that have a correct answer (user answer matches correct answer), but I only want to select rows that have distinct "QID_Lookup".

[Code]...

The problem is that the result set includes duplicate QID_Lookup values. How can I include only distinct QID_Lookup values? keep in mind that there are 64 columns, so if I can avoid it, I wouldn't want to list each column individually for selection.

Finding Distinct Values In Array?

Feb 15, 2012

I have a database which need to be assigned into array arr()(), e.g.

arr(0)(0) = aa arr(1)(0) = ab arr(2)(0) = aa
arr(0)(1) = bb arr(1)(1) = ba arr(2)(1) = ba
arr(0)(2) = cc arr(1)(2) = cc arr(2)(2) = cc

I need to find distinct / unique value in each arr(k)(0), arr(k)(1), arr(k)(2); where k=0..2. Then i need to insert the result into array cat as follows:

cat(0)(0) = {aa} cat(0)(1) = {ab}
cat(1)(0) = {bb} cat(1)(1) = {ba}
cat(2)(0) = {cc}

I've tried code below but it doesn't work. The assigning process into array arr()() from DB is OK. Problem only come up if I try to find the distinct value (If Not (cat(j).Contains(ds.Tables(0).Rows(i).Item(j))) ... End If).

For i = 0 To 2
list(i) = New Integer(3) {}
For j = 0 To 2

Get Distinct Values From List(Of T) Using Linq?

Mar 10, 2012

I have a List(Of Hardware) - the List is called HWModels

Class Hardware has the following Properties:

ModelName
Status
CPUStatus
MemoryStatus
DiskStatus

The List is populated by reading a CSV file, once it's populated, I want to return the distinct records based on the ModelName

I've attempted by doing it as follows:

(From a In HWModels Select a.ModelName).Distinct

But this isn't right because I end up with a list of only the ModelName's and nothing else.

How do I get the Distinct function to return all of the other class members within the list?

Get Distinct Values And Converting Back Into DataTable?

Mar 14, 2012

I have a "result" which is DataTable and I like to get the x distinct values(City) and convert it back to DataTable how do I do this the code below gives me an error

Dim query = (From x In results.AsEnumerable()
Select (x.Field(Of String)("City"))).Distinct().CopyToDataTable()

so what I want is records of distinct cities I can get that but the problem I am having is converting it back to Datable.

Edited:I am using "where" in this statement and it does convert to Table(works fine) but not on "select"

Dim results = (From myRow In ds.Tables(1).AsEnumerable()
Where (myRow.Field(Of String)("xxxx") = xxxx)
Select myRow).Distinct().CopyToDataTable()

I have a DataTable that has several hundred rows.I want to get a row count of distinct values in a particular column.For example, I have a DataTable of Product Orders, but I want to get the number of unique Customers.

I load a list from a database like the example below.

C# - LINQ Select Distinct While Evaluating Multiple Rows

Jul 11, 2011

I have an EnumerableRowCollection that looks like the following:
VendorCode | GroupType | Variance
01165 G .16
01165 G .16
01165 CH .16
01165 CH .18
07754 G .25
07754 G .25
07754 G .39

Essentially, this is a massive list of vendor codes, their groups, and price variances. I need to compose a query that will create a distinct list vendor codes and group types. The catch, however, is that I need to evaluate all of the variances associated with that particular VendorCode/GroupType to see if they are all the same - it they are not, I need to return some way of signifying that the group has a "custom" variance, otherwise it needs to return the value (ie: if they are all .16, then return .16, if there are multiple values, return "custom")

The result would look like this, based off of the list I showed above.
VendorCode | GroupType | Variance
01165 G .16
01165 CH custom
07754 G custom

I have no trouble getting a distinct list of VendorCode/GroupType - this is what I have so far:
Dim distinctList = From q In query Select q.VendorCode, q.GroupType, (evaluated q.Variance here?) Distinct
(where "query" is an EnumerableRowCollection(Of (anonymous type)))
I'm at a loss, though, on how to evaluate the variance property to get the result that I need?

Linq To Datarow, Select Multiple Columns As Distinct?

Apr 16, 2010

basically i'm trying to reproduce the following mssql query as LINQ

SELECT DISTINCT [TABLENAME], [COLUMNNAME] FROM [DATATABLE]

the closest i've got is

Dim query = (From row As DataRow In ds.Tables("DATATABLE").Rows _
Select row("COLUMNNAME") ,row("TABLENAME").Distinct

when i do the above i get the error

Range variable name can be inferred only from a simple or qualified name with no arguments.

i was sort of expecting it to return a collection that i could then iterate through and perform actions for each entry. maybe a datarow collection?

As a complete LINQ newb, i'm not sure what i'm missing.
i've tried variations on

Select new with { row("COLUMNNAME") ,row("TABLENAME")}

and get:

Anonymous type member name can be inferred only from a simple or qualified name with no arguments.

to get around this i've tried

Dim query = From r In ds.Tables("DATATABLE").AsEnumerable _
Select New String(1) {r("TABLENAME"), r("COLUMNNAME")} Distinct

however it doesn't seem to be doing the distinct thing properly.
