c# - How to check if all list items have the same value and return it, or return an “otherValue” if they don’t?

If all the items in a list have the same value, then I need to use that value, otherwise I need to use an “otherValue”. I can’t think of a simple and clear way of doing this. When the list is empty it should return the "other" value.

var val = yyy.First().Value;
return yyy.All(x=>x.Value == val) ? val : otherValue; 

Cleanest way I can think of. You can make it a one-liner by inlining val, but First() would be evaluated n times, doubling execution time.

To incorporate the "empty set" behavior specified in the comments, you simply add one more line before the two above:

if(yyy == null || !yyy.Any()) return otherValue;
