Is there some way in linq group By Id, Order By descending and then select top 5 of each grouping? Right now I have some code shown below, but I used
.Take(5)
Items = list.GroupBy(x => x.Id)
.Select(x => x.OrderByDescending(y => y.Value))
.Select(y => new Home.SubModels.Item {
Name= y.FirstOrDefault().Name,
Value = y.FirstOrDefault().Value,
Id = y.FirstOrDefault().Id
})
You are almost there. Use Take
in the Select
statement:
var items = list.GroupBy(x => x.Id)
//For each IGrouping - order nested items and take 5 of them
.Select(x => x.OrderByDescending(y => y.Value).Take(5))
This will return an IEnumerable<IEnumerable<T>>
. If you want it flattened replace Select
with SelectMany
