C# HOW TO USE THE LIST OBJECT




In this short example I will show you how easy it is to actually create a List object and add some objects to it.

The List Object resides in the System.Collections.Generic;

That's why you must include that namespace before creating the List Object.

That it achieved by adding this line at the top of your .cs file.
using System.Collections.Generic;

with that said, let's jump to the code.


****************************************************

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace List_Test
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
               // Creates the List Object and assign space to it.
            List<string> list = new List<string>();

            list.Add("one");//adds "one" to the list
            list.Add("two");//adds "two" to the list
            list.Add("three");//adds "three" to the list
           

            /*ITERATES OVER THE LIST OF TYPE STRING, IN EACH ITERATION
                  THE ACTUAL VALUE IS ASSIGNED TO THE TEMP VARIABLE tempString*/
            foreach (string tempString in list)
            {
                    //shows the ToString() method return string in the Command Prompt.
                Console.WriteLine(tempString.ToString());
            }

            //END MESSAGE
            Console.WriteLine("END, press any key to quit.");
            Console.ReadKey();//WAITS FOR USER INPUT TO CLOSE THE APPLICATION
        }
    }
}
********************************************************
SCREENSHOTS:

Step 1 :
Add the System.Collections.Generic to the top.


Step 2:
Place The code in the Main method.
 Step 3:
Run the application. (F5 if using Visual C# or Microsoft Visual Studio)

I hope it helped you out in some way.
