Enumerable.Any Method (System.Linq) | Microsoft Learn

Source:: AnyAll.cs

Source:: AnyAll.cs

Source:: AnyAll.cs

Source:: AnyAll.cs

Determines whether a sequence contains any elements.

public:
generic <typename TSource>
[System::Runtime::CompilerServices::Extension]
 static bool Any(System::Collections::Generic::IEnumerable<TSource> ^ source);

public static bool Any<TSource>(this System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<TSource> source);

static member Any : seq<'Source> -> bool

<Extension()>
Public Function Any(Of TSource) (source As IEnumerable(Of TSource)) As Boolean

Type Parameters

TSource

The type of the elements of source.

Parameters Returns

true if the source sequence contains any elements; otherwise, false.

Exceptions Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use Any to determine whether a sequence contains any elements.

List<int> numbers = new List<int> { 1, 2 };
bool hasElements = numbers.Any();

Console.WriteLine("The list {0} empty.",
    hasElements ? "is not" : "is");

// This code produces the following output:
//
// The list is not empty.

' Create a list of Integers.
Dim numbers As New List(Of Integer)(New Integer() {1, 2})

' Determine if the list contains any items.
Dim hasElements As Boolean = numbers.Any()

' Display the output.
Dim text As String = IIf(hasElements, "not ", "")
Console.WriteLine($"The list is {text}empty.")

' This code produces the following output:
'
' The list is not empty.

The Boolean value that the Any<TSource>(IEnumerable<TSource>) method returns is typically used in the predicate of a where clause (Where clause in Visual Basic) or a direct call to the Where<TSource>(IEnumerable<TSource>, Func<TSource,Boolean>) method. The following example demonstrates this use of the Any method.

class Pet
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public int Age { get; set; }
}
class Person
{
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    public Pet[] Pets { get; set; }
}

public static void AnyEx2()
{
    List<Person> people = new List<Person>
        { new Person { LastName = "Haas",
                       Pets = new Pet[] { new Pet { Name="Barley", Age=10 },
                                          new Pet { Name="Boots", Age=14 },
                                          new Pet { Name="Whiskers", Age=6 }}},
          new Person { LastName = "Fakhouri",
                       Pets = new Pet[] { new Pet { Name = "Snowball", Age = 1}}},
          new Person { LastName = "Antebi",
                       Pets = new Pet[] { }},
          new Person { LastName = "Philips",
                       Pets = new Pet[] { new Pet { Name = "Sweetie", Age = 2},
                                          new Pet { Name = "Rover", Age = 13}} }
        };

    // Determine which people have a non-empty Pet array.
    IEnumerable<string> names = from person in people
                                where person.Pets.Any()
                                select person.LastName;

    foreach (string name in names)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(name);
    }

    /* This code produces the following output:

       Haas
       Fakhouri
       Philips
    */
}

    ' Determine which people have a non-empty Pet array.
    Dim names = From person In people
                Where person.Pets.Any()
                Select person.LastName

    For Each name As String In names
        Console.WriteLine(name)
    Next

    ' This code produces the following output:
    '
    ' Haas
    ' Fakhouri
    ' Philips

End Sub

Remarks

Note

This method does not return any one element of a collection. Instead, it determines whether the collection contains any elements.

The enumeration of source is stopped as soon as the result can be determined.

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