Enumerable.Average Method (IEnumerable<Nullable<Int64>>)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Computes the average of a sequence of nullable Int64 values.

Namespace:  System.Linq
Assembly:  System.Core (in System.Core.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<ExtensionAttribute> _
Public Shared Function Average ( _
    source As IEnumerable(Of Nullable(Of Long)) _
) As Nullable(Of Double)

public static Nullable<double> Average(
    this IEnumerable<Nullable<long>> source
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Nullable<Double>
The average of the sequence of values, or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the source sequence is empty or contains only values that are nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IEnumerable<Nullable<Int64>>. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

source is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
OverflowException

The sum of the elements in the sequence is larger than MaxValue.

Remarks

In Visual Basic query expression syntax, an Aggregate Into Average() clause translates to an invocation of Average.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use Average(IEnumerable<Nullable<Int64>>) to calculate an average.

      ' Create an array of nullable long values.
      Dim longs() As Nullable(Of Long) = {Nothing, 10007L, 37L, 399846234235L}

      ' Determine the average value in the array.
      Dim avg As Nullable(Of Double) = longs.Average()

      ' Display the output.
      outputBlock.Text &= "The average is " & avg.ToString & vbCrLf

      ' This code produces the following output:
      '
      ' The average is 133282081426.333


      long?[] longs = { null, 10007L, 37L, 399846234235L };

      double? average = longs.Average();

      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("The average is {0}.", average) + "\n";

      // This code produces the following output:
      //
      // The average is 133282081426.333.
