Question how to sum the list value of array list

[solutionsdxb]

Hi,

i have created an array list and added value using

arraylist.add(value)

now i want to sum all the value inside the arraylist how its possible.

Dim sublist As New ArrayList()

sublist.Add(1)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(0)
sublist.Add(1)

how can get the sum of those added value.

with regards

You can add the value of the items together like this:

sublist.Add(1) ' item(0)
sublist.Add(0) ' item(1)
sublist.Add(0) ' item(2)
sublist.Add(0) ' item(3)
sublist.Add(0) ' item(4)
sublist.Add(0) ' item(5)
sublist.Add(0) ' item(6)
sublist.Add(0)  'item(7)
sublist.Add(1)  'item(8)

Dim total as integer = 0

total = sublist.item(0) + sublist.item(1) + sublist.item(2) + sublist.item(3) + _
          sublist.item(4) + sublist.item(5) + sublist.item(6) + sublist.item(7) + _
          sublist.item(8)

Or, for less typing, you can put the last part into a loop:

Dim total As Integer = 0

        Dim i As Integer = 0
        For i = 0 To sublist.Count - 1
            total = total + sublist(i)
            i += 1
        Next

Does this help?
