Get The Corresponding Key For The Maximum Value In A Dictionary(Of SomeEnum, Integer) Using LINQ?
Dec 11, 2009
I've got a Dictionary(Of SomeEnum, Integer) that gets filled up while looping through some objects that have a property with type SomeEnum. Once the loop is done, I want the SomeEnum type that occurs the most in the list of objects. I also need the other counts as well for display purposes, hence the usage of a simple Dictionary(Of K, V).I am looking for a LINQ query to give me back the SomeEnum key that occurs the most by looking at each keys number of occurences. Or perhaps there's an easier way of going about it.I could do this:
Return (From kvp As KeyValuePair(Of SomeEnum, Integer) _
In Me.MyObjects Order By kvp.Value Descending _
Select kvp).First().Key
But wouldn't the sorting be a more expensive operation than trying to wiggle Max() in there somehow?
I have a LINQ2Entity problem, I want to get the value, string, from a database, so I select FProducts.Serial_number, and to end the query, I do .ToDictionary. The problem is, it tells me that it doesn't have sufficient parameters, to convert ToDictionary. So I need something like select FProducts.Serial_number, Nothing). ToDictionary. Also FProducts.Serial_number, 0).ToDictionary doesn't work.
Sub GetStatistics(ByVal ProductNumbers As List(Of String), ByRef Passed As Integer, ByRef FailedProducts As List(Of String)) Passed = 0 FailedProducts = Nothing
I want to group items from a linq query under a header, so that for each header I have a list of objects that match the header title. I assumed the solution would be to use ToDictionary to convert the objects, but this allows only one object per "group" (or dictionary key). I assumed I could create the dictionary of type (String, List Of()), but I can't figure out how to write it. As an example I have written a simplified version below.
countDictionary As Dictionary(of Category, Dictionary(of Date, Integer))
The Class has a Enumeration Property. For the purposes of demonstration, I'll call it MasterCategory.I have been trying to get out an object that looks like the following:
groupedCountDictionary As Dictionary(of MasterCategory, Dictionary(of Date, Integer)
Which results in a IEnumerable (Of Dictionary(of Date, Integer)) for each MasterCategory value.However, I need that IEnumerable of Dictionary flattened to one dictionary with all the integers summed (total counts) for each date. I then tried to use various selects and group bys (from numerous stackoverflow posts) to "flatten" it, but my efforts have fallen short.
Current Code
[Category Class] - MasterCategory As Enum - Name As String etc
I have created a Dictionary class (MyDictionary for the example). I am currently trying to pass MyDictionary into a function, filter it into a new instance of MyDictionary and pass this new instance into another method. When I am attempting to create the second instance from the filtered first instance of MyDictionary via Lambda Expressions and the ToDictionary Method, I am getting the following error:
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]' to type 'MyDictionary'. I have simplified the example and recreated it in LINQPad and am getting the same error.
I am new to EF Linq and I have been struggling with this query for a few days. From reading this forum, I have managed to get this far:
Dim noPic = (From f In myEntities.FriendLists Where (f.UserID = Profile.ID) Select f.FriendID).Except(From g In myEntities.GuestLists Where g.EventID = _id Select g.FriendID)
[Code]...
I am trying to get everybody from the FriendList who is not already on the GuestList to display in a Repeater control. After reading the forum I was able to append .First() to noPic at the myNoPic declaration and finally get a result but that only gave me the first element. Does anybody have any advice on how to accomplish this?
Linq to SQL query to Select the maximum "MeanWindSpeed" value? The database name is "WeatherArchives" The TableName is "TblValues" The Column is "MeanWindSpeed" And Also, I would like to have a query to get me the Max "MeanWindSpeed" in each year,
In My Code i am using Dictionary(Of String , String) As Key Value Pair ..While i am using LINQ to Query this Dictionary, It Shows Dictionary is not Queryable.
As I am beginner in LINQ, I have small problems. I have dictionary of Char and Long, and I would like to use LINQ to retrieve Char with highest Long Value. I saw some C# samples, which look pretty easy, but I can't achieve such expression in VB.Here are two expressions, and I don't think they are most efficient possible.
I need a simple LINQ query on VB.NET on the dictionary [Code] What I need here is to retrieve a SINGLE website (dictionary value of string type) or NOTHING (if the query cannot find an affordable result) given those rules: The dictionary key (integer) must be greater than startSite and not equal to mainSite or returnSite (both must be excluded from the result) Any hint? [Code]
I have a Dictinary(Of String, Item) and I'm trying to sort it into alphabetical order by the item name. I don't want to use a sorted dictinary and without it, I've having zero luck. Linq is not my strong point.
I don't know if this is doable, maybe with Linq, but I have a List(Of MyType):
Public Class MyType Property key As Char Property description As String End Class
And I want to create a Dictionary(Of Char, MyType) using the key field as the dictionary keys and the values in the List as the dictionary values, with something like:
New Dictionary(Of Char, MyType)(??)
Even if this is doable, internally it will loop through all the List items, I guess?
I have a generic dictonary which is templated in the following manner:
[code...]
If I wanted to omit certain list items against arbitrary keys (that is the items that are in the list contained within the value part of each of the key value pairs making up the dictionary) given some arbitrary condition (lets say omitting list items where a list item contained the string "abc")
I would expect to able to create/project into a new dictionary which would contain entries which contained lists WITHOUT those items whose name contained "abc"
I face a problem that if i make a datattype in sql server of Integer and then use it in linq to sql query it give error of "specific cast not valid" and when i change datatype into varchar the linq to sql query work fine one more thing how to use linq to sql query to make crystal report?
Apologies if this is the wrong forum (the other LINQ based ones didn't seem appropriate). I'm writing a very simple code crack game, a player enters FOUR numbers in a text box which are compared against the random number generated on form launch. Random number generator
I am trying to replace tasks.IndexOf(t) + 1 with something a little simpler. Is there any built in functionality for this? Hrmm xml literals do not seem to translate well on here....
I accept both C# and VB.NET suggestion, even though I'm writing an app in VB.NET I have two lists of intergers
List1 {1,2,3,5} List2 {2,4,6,7}
I want to have new List3 {4,6,7} which is composed of elements of List2 that are not in List1. I know I can write a nice For Each loop for this but I want it done in LINQ I've been looking for such methods at Enumerable Methods, but I can't find it.
I have two classes, one nested in the other. [code]Neither "Name" or "ID" are unique between operations and records.I wish to construct a dictionary using LINQ = Dictionary(Of String, Of List(Of Integer), whereby the keys are uniqe examples of Names in my collection and the values are the collective set of distinct IDs that are associated with those names.
I have created a class with a function in it. I have a collection of data I want to pass back. I tried an arraylist first. Now I am trying to use a dictionary. My problem is that it creates the dictionary ok, but I am only get the last row of data from my
Function GetWeldAuditInfo(ByVal ResourceId As String, ByVal VendorId
I use VS2005 and I have just started working with the dictionary in particular the Dictionary.ContainsKey method. At the bottom of the page in the msdn library it says the following in the community content How to make sure that Contains functions properly.
ive got some simple problem i cant understand how to solve.
str(1) is an array and integer(or double, tried both) a(1) is an array and integer (or double, tried both) a(1) = a(1) + 1 Label1.Text = str(1) + a
the big part is where i get: operator '+' is not defined for types 'integer' and '1-dimensional array of integer'.why do i get that message and what does it mean? how do i make the code do what i want?
