Method 1
If you want Min and Max value for each ID in the list, then you have to group by ID and the get MAX and Min accordingly like:
var query = yourList.GroupBy(r=> r.ID)
.Select (grp => new
{
ID = grp.Key,
Min = grp.Min(t=> t.Col1),
Max = grp.Max(t=> t.Col2)
});
Use Enumerable.Max method to calculate maximum like:
var max = yourList.Max(r=> r.Col1);
Use Enumerable.Min method to calculate minimum on a field like:
var min = yourList.Min(r=> r.Col2);
Method 2
You can sort, something like:
var min = yourList.OrderBy(p => p.Col1).First(); var max = yourList.OrderByDescending(p => p.Col1).First();
