C# | Total number of elements present in an array
Array.GetLength(Int32) Method is used to find the total number of elements present in the specified dimension of the Array.
Syntax:
public int GetLength (int dimension);
Here, dimension is a zero-based dimension of the Array whose length needs to be determined.
Return value: The return type of this method is System.Int32. This method return a 32-bit integer that represents the number of elements in the specified dimension.
Exception:This method will give IndexOutOfRangeException if the value of dimension is less than zero or if the value of dimension is equal to or greater than Rank.
Below given are some examples to understand the implementation in a better way:
Example 1:
CSharp
// C# program to illustrate the // use of GetLength() method using System; public class GFG { // Main method static public void Main() { // create and initialize array int [] myarray = {445, 44, 66, 6666667, 78, 878, 1}; // Display the array Console.WriteLine( "The elements of myarray :" ); foreach ( int i in myarray) { Console.WriteLine(i); } // Find the number of element in myarray int result = myarray.GetLength(0); Console.WriteLine( "Total Elements: {0}" , result); } } |
Output:
The elements of myarray : 445 44 66 6666667 78 878 1 Total Elements: 7
Example 2:
CSharp
// C# program to check arrays contain // same number of elements or not using System; public class GFG { // Main method static public void Main() { // create and initializing array int [] myarray1 = {100, 0, 400, 660, 700, 809, 0}; int [] myarray2 = {100, 0, 400, 660, 700}; int [] myarray3 = {100, 0, 400, 660, 700, 809, 0}; // Find the number of element in myarray // using GetLength() method int result1 = myarray1.GetLength(0); int result2 = myarray2.GetLength(0); int result3 = myarray3.GetLength(0); // Check if myarray1, myarray2, myarray3 // contain the same number of elements or not Console.WriteLine( "myarray1 and myarray2: {0}" , Equals(result1, result2)); Console.WriteLine( "myarray1 and myarray3: {0}" , Equals(result1, result3)); } } |
Output:
myarray1 and myarray2: False myarray1 and myarray3: True
