Type of issue

Missing information

Description

The Grouping Data page says at the first table that GroupBy's usage in LINQ is either group ... by or group ... by ... into ....
This seems to contradict the group clause page, which does not mention any usage of the group ... by, only group ... by ....
If I'm correct I believe the Grouping Data page should change group ... by to group ... by ... in its table.

I'll keep this open to look at in the next update.

It's not too much of a contradiction: The into keyword is used to make the output of a group by query the input to another query.
