MoreEnumerableSliceT Method |
Extracts count elements from a sequence at a particular zero-based starting index
Namespace: MoreLinqAssembly: MoreLinq (in MoreLinq.dll) Version: 2.0.0
Syntax public static IEnumerable<T> Slice<T>(
this IEnumerable<T> sequence,
int startIndex,
int count
)
<ExtensionAttribute>
Public Shared Function Slice(Of T) (
sequence As IEnumerable(Of T),
startIndex As Integer,
count As Integer
) As IEnumerable(Of T)
public:
[ExtensionAttribute]
generic<typename T>
static IEnumerable<T>^ Slice(
IEnumerable<T>^ sequence,
int startIndex,
int count
)
[<ExtensionAttribute>]
static member Slice :
sequence : IEnumerable<'T> *
startIndex : int *
count : int -> IEnumerable<'T>
Parameters
- sequence
- Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableT
The sequence from which to extract elements - startIndex
- Type: SystemInt32
The zero-based index at which to begin slicing - count
- Type: SystemInt32
The number of items to slice out of the index
Type Parameters
- T
- The type of the elements in the source sequence
Return Value
Type:
IEnumerableTA new sequence containing any elements sliced out from the source sequence
Usage Note
In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type
IEnumerableT. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see
Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or
Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Remarks
If the starting position or count specified result in slice extending past the end of the sequence,
it will return all elements up to that point. There is no guarantee that the resulting sequence will
contain the number of elements requested - it may have anywhere from 0 to count.
This method is implemented in an optimized manner for any sequence implementing IList{T}.
The result of Slice() is identical to: sequence.Skip(startIndex).Take(count)
