How can I get the maximum element(the object itself) in each group, rather than the number itself? I can only get the maximum value, not the object

        var maxValue = order.GroupBy(a => a.username).Select(a=>(a.Key, a.Max(k=>k.count)));
        Console.WriteLine("Max group = " + maxValue);

Does this answer your question? [How to use LINQ to select object with minimum or maximum property value](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/914109/how-to-use-linq-to-select-object-with-minimum-or-maximum-property-value) – Ismael Padilla Jan 03 '20 at 13:30
`Select` returns `IEnumerable`, you should get a single item from it (by key for example) – Pavel Anikhouski Jan 03 '20 at 13:37
