Hi,

(1,3,5) is 12.*

Isn’t the result 9? Is this 0 base index?
And do you mean value is odd or position of the value?

Anyway, the following will help you.

Value is odd.

arrInt.Where(Function(x) x mod 2 =1).Take(n).Sum()

Position is odd (1 base index)

arrInt.Where(Function(x,i) i mod 2 =0).Take(n).Sum()

Oh yes, the addition will be 9. I meant the value is odd.
If you can help me out without using Lamda Function. I am new to it.

Hi,

Can you try to add index variable in index property of ForEach and modify condition as the following?

Note: index of ForEach is 0-based. So even number of the index is odd number as we count it 1 based.
