In MongoDB, the db.collection.distinct() method finds the distinct values for a specified field across a single collection or view and returns the results in an array.
Distinct values are those with redundant duplicates removed. Distinct values are unique values. For example, if you have 2 or 3 documents with the same value, the distinct command will return just one value.
db.collection.distinct() is a shell wrapper method for the distinct command.
In MongoDB the $sortByCount aggregation pipeline stage groups incoming documents based on the value of a specified expression, then computes the count of documents in each distinct group.
Each group is output in its own document, which consists of two fields:
_id field containing the distinct grouping value, andcount field containing the number of documents belonging to that grouping.The documents are sorted by count in descending order.
In MongoDB the $count aggregation operator passes a document to the next stage in the aggregation pipeline that contains a count of the number of documents input to the current stage.
In MongoDB the db.collection.estimatedDocumentCount() method returns the count of all documents in a collection or view.
The collection part is the name of the collection or view to perform the count operation on.
The db.collection.estimatedDocumentCount() method wraps the count command.
In MongoDB the cursor.count() method counts the number of documents referenced by a cursor..
Note that it doesn’t actually perform the query. It simply counts and returns the number of results that would be returned by the query.
The cursor.count() method is a wrapper for the count command.
In MongoDB the db.collection.count() method returns the count of documents that would match a find() query for the collection or view.
The collection part is the name of the collection or view to perform the count operation on.
