Returns a specified number of contiguous elements from the start of a sequence.

generic <typename TSource>
[System::Runtime::CompilerServices::Extension]
static System::Linq::IQueryable<TSource> ^ Take(System::Linq::IQueryable<TSource> ^ source, int count);

Public Function Take(Of TSource) (source As IQueryable(Of TSource), count As Integer) As IQueryable(Of TSource)
Type Parameters
The type of the elements of source
.
The sequence to return elements from.
The number of elements to return.
ReturnsAn IQueryable<T> that contains the specified number of elements from the start of source
.
The following code example demonstrates how to use Take<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Int32) to return elements from the start of a sequence.
int[] grades = { 59, 82, 70, 56, 92, 98, 85 };
// Sort the grades in descending order and take the first three.
IEnumerable<int> topThreeGrades =
grades.AsQueryable().OrderByDescending(grade => grade).Take(3);
Console.WriteLine("The top three grades are:");
foreach (int grade in topThreeGrades)
Console.WriteLine(grade);
/*
This code produces the following output:
The top three grades are:
98
92
85
*/
Dim grades() As Integer = {59, 82, 70, 56, 92, 98, 85}
' Sort the grades in descending order and take the first three.
Dim topThreeGrades = _
grades.AsQueryable().OrderByDescending(Function(grade) grade).Take(3)
Dim output As New System.Text.StringBuilder
output.AppendLine("The top three grades are:")
For Each grade As Integer In topThreeGrades
output.AppendLine(grade)
Next
' Display the output.
MsgBox(output.ToString())
' This code produces the following output:
' The top three grades are:
' 98
' 92
' 85
Remarks
The Take<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Int32) method generates a MethodCallExpression that represents calling Take<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Int32) itself as a constructed generic method. It then passes the MethodCallExpression to the CreateQuery(Expression) method of the IQueryProvider represented by the Provider property of the source
parameter.
The query behavior that occurs as a result of executing an expression tree that represents calling Take<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Int32) depends on the implementation of the type of the source
parameter. The expected behavior is that it takes the first count
elements from the start of source
.
