Which is the most effective way to sum data in the DataTable by a given criteria?

I have the following table:

KEY_1
KEY_2,
VALUE_1,
VALUE_2

Input:

01101, P, 2, 3
01101, F, 1, 1
01101, P, 4, 4
10102, F, 5, 7

Desired output (new DataTable):

01101, P, 6, 7
01101, F, 1, 1
01101, SUM, 7, 8
10102, F, 5, 7
10102, SUM, 5, 7

I need efficient algorithm, because I have 10k rows and 18 columns in a DataTable.

Thank you.

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language.

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
