Hi, let's say that I have a table called Items (ID int, Done int, Total int)

I can do it by two queries:

int total = m.Items.Sum(p=>p.Total)
int done = m.Items.Sum(p=>p.Done)

But I'd like to do it in one query, something like this:

var x = from p in m.Items select new { Sum(p.Total), Sum(p.Done)};

Surely there is a way to call aggregate functions from LINQ syntax...?
