I want to take only two columns from the table and put it not in the list, but into 2D array of strings string[,]
. Here what I do:
string[,] array = _table.Where(x => x.IsDeleted == false)
.Select(y => new string[,] {{y.Name, y.Street}});
And now I don't know how to execute it. If I do .ToArray()
I'll get string[][,]
. Anybody knows how to solve it with LINQ, without using a loop?
string[,]
is not possible to get as an output of LINQ query.
As an alternative you can try something like this:-
string[][] array = _table.Where(x => x.IsDeleted == false).Select(y => new[] {y.Name, y.Streete}).ToArray();
OR
var array =_table.Select(str=>str.Where(x => x.IsDeleted == false)
.Select(y => new[] {y.Name, y.Street})
.ToArray())
.ToArray();
There is nothing in LINQ that let you create multidimentional array. However, you can create your own extension method which will return TResult[,]
:
public static class Enumerable
{
public static TResult[,] ToRectangularArray<TSource, TResult>(this IEnumerable<TSource> source, Func<TSource, TResult[]> selector)
{
// check if source is null
if (source == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException("source");
// load all items from source and pass it through selector delegate
var items = source.Select(x => selector(x)).ToArray();
// check if we have any items to insert into rectangular array
if (items.Length == 0)
return new TResult[0, 0];
// create rectangular array
var width = items[0].Length;
var result = new TResult[items.Length, width];
TResult[] item;
for (int i = 0; i < items.Length; i++)
{
item = items[i];
// item has different width then first element
if (item.Length != width)
throw new ArgumentException("TResult[] returned by selector has to have the same length for all source collection items.", "selector");
for (int j = 0; j < width; j++)
result[i, j] = item[j];
}
return result;
}
}
But as you can see, it still gets all result into jagged array TResult[][]
first, and then use loops to rewrite it into multidimentional array.
Usage example:
string[,] array = _table.Where(x => x.IsDeleted == false)
.ToRectangularArray(x => new string[] { x.Name, x.Street });
