    {
        private SchoolContext _context;

        public GroupByExample(SchoolContext dataContext)
        {
            // Sets the data context
            _context = dataContext;
        }

        public void Example7()
        {
            // Instantiates a DataStore object with datawindow: d_department_course.
            var datastore = new DataStore("d_department_course", _context);

            datastore.Retrieve();

            // Sets the group by column to course_departmentid via a delegate.
            // This function provides no sort capabilities.
            var departmentGroup = datastore.GroupBy<D_Department_Course>(
                d => d.Course_Departmentid);

            Console.WriteLine("Department Group Count:{0}",
                departmentGroup.Count());

            /*This code produces the following output:
             
            Department Group Count: 4
