public static IQueryable<TResult> HashPartition<TSource, TKey, TResult>(
	this IQueryable<TSource> source,
	Expression<Func<TSource, TKey>> keySelector,
	IEqualityComparer<TKey> comparer,
	Expression<Func<TSource, TResult>> resultSelector
)

Parameters

Type: System.Linq IQueryable TSource 
The dataset to be partitioned
keySelector
Type: System.Linq.Expressions Expression Func TSource, TKey  
The function to extract the key from a record
comparer
Type: System.Collections.Generic IEqualityComparer TKey 
An IComparer on TKey to compare keys
resultSelector
Type: System.Linq.Expressions Expression Func TSource, TResult  
The function to compute output record
Type Parameters

TSource
The type of the records in the dataset
TKey
The type of the key on which the partition is based
TResult
The type of the records in the result dataset

Return Value

Type: IQueryable TResult
