debugging - Get the count of values from a dictionary C# -

i have dictionary has id key , list of lists value. count of how many lists inside list. appears give correct value when query whilst debugging when go try , access data gives count of 1 rather 2. i'm sure it's i'm missing can't put finger on it.

here's count when check through debugging:

and here's when try access count of 2:

the whole method is:

public static list<string> getstatisticscsvheaders(list<items> itemlist, dictionary<int, list<list<statistic>>> availablestats) {     list<string> toprow = new list<string>();      (int = 0; < availablestats.values.count; i++)     {         toprow.add("phase " + (i+1));         (int k = 0; k < itemlist.count; k++)             toprow.add(getmetricheader(itemlist[k], true));     }      return toprow; } 

i'd have number of lists inside list counter line i < availablestats.values.count.

edit: should mention i've tried availablestats.values[0].count won't compile.

debugger shows have single item in dictionary, , item list 2 elements. because code taking count of item in dictionary you're getting 1.

to number of items in lists in dictionary, try linq , sum:

availablestats.values.sum(x => x.count)
