Count of items ina list using CAML Query

Question

Hi,
Thanks in Advance
I'm using an app called blumshapiro to customize the tile in sharepoint 2013, I also have a requirement of getting the item count from the list which can be done by writing a CAML Query. Can anyone please assist me with the syntax to fetch the item count
in caml Query.

Hi 
There is nothing like item count in Camel query.You can get Required result using SPListItemCollection.Count
Do a normal where clause having condition.
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
string camlquery = @"<Query>
<Where>
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name='Vendor_x0020_Product_x0020_Name'/>
<Value Type='Text'>" + xpathresultBTADSLMAX + @"</Value>
</Eq>
</Where>
</Query>";
query.Query = camlquery;
SPListItemCollection listItemCollection = list.GetItems(query);int count=0;if(listItemCollection !=null) { count=ListItemCollection.Count}MSDN reference
