I'm very, very new to C# and would like to ask a maybe very stupid question, the first language I learned was Java, in which I could do this:
int[][] array = new int[1600][900];
array[600][400] = 10;
for(int x = 0; x < 1600; x++)
{
for(int y = 0; y < 900; y++)
{
int something = colour[x][y];
}
}
Now I've searched the web for quite a while, but I've got no idea about how to do this in C#
EDIT:
Thanks for the help everyone, it's been usefull :)
Just use a comma :
int[,] array = new int[1600,900];
array[600,400] = 10;
//...
You can do it in a very similar way in C#:
int[,] array = new int[1600,900];
array[600,400] = 10;
for(int x = 0; x < 1600; x++)
{
for(int y = 0; y < 900; y++)
{
int something = colour[x,y];
}
}
I'm not sure if I understand what's the purpose of the code in the double for cycle. I suppose those three pieces of code don't have anything in common.
int [,] array = new int[1600,900];
To add some color to the answers:
In .NET, an int[][] is a jagged array, or an array of arrays. While this may be a perfectly good structure for you to use, it has the addded overhead that each array must be initialized individually. So your initialization would be:
int[][] array = new int[1600][];
for(int i=0;i<array.Length;i++)
array[i] = new int[900];
now you can access an individual value by using
array[600][400] = 10;
One benefit of using jagged arrays is that the "interior" array can be different sizes. If you don;t need that flexibility than using a rectangular ([,]) array may be a better option for you.
