The ValueTuple <T1> Struct is used to create a singleton value tuple or 1-ValueTuple which stores only one component. It provides runtime implementation of value tuples. You can create the instance of ValueTuple <T1> Struct by using ValueTuple<T1>(T1) constructor, or by using ValueTuple.Create method or simply by using parenthesis(). You can retrieve the value of the value tuple’s single unnamed element by using the default property, or named elements can directly be accessed with the help of their names.

Important Points:

  • It implements IStructuralComparable, IStructuralEquatable, IComparable, IComparable<ValueTuple<T1>>, IEquatable<ValueTuple<T1>>, and ITuple interfaces.
  • It defined under System namespace.
  • It can also store duplicate elements.
  • Fields are mutable. So, you can change the value of ValueTuple <T1>.
  • Here, member like Item1 is field not property.
  • It is of value type not of reference type.

Constructor

Constructor Description
ValueTuple<T1>(T1) Initializes a new ValueTuple<T1> instance.

Field

Field Description
Item1 Gets the value of the current ValueTuple<T1> instance’s first element.

Example:




// C# program to illustrate how to
// access the element of ValueTuple<T1>
using System;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Main Method
    static public void Main()
    {
  
        // Creating a value tuple
        // Using Create method
        var Mylibrary = ValueTuple.Create(3456);
  
        // Display the element of the given value tuple
        Console.WriteLine("Book Id: {0}", Mylibrary.Item1);
    }
}


Output:

Book Id: 3456

Methods

Method Description
CompareTo(ValueTuple) Compares the current ValueTuple<T1> instance to a specified ValueTuple<T1> instance.
Equals(Object) Returns a value that indicates whether the current ValueTuple<T1> instance is equal to a specified object.
Equals(ValueTuple) Returns a value that indicates whether the current ValueTuple<T1> instance is equal to a specified ValueTuple<T1> instance.
GetHashCode() Calculates the hash code for the current ValueTuple<T1> instance.
ToString() Returns a string that represents the value of this ValueTuple<T1> instance.

Example:




// Check the given value tuples
// are equal or not
using System;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Main method
    static public void Main()
    {
  
        // Creating 1-ValueTuple
        // Using Create method
        var T1 = ValueTuple.Create(346);
        var T2 = ValueTuple.Create(346);
  
        // Check if both the value tuples
        // are equal or not
        if (T1.Equals(T2))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Code is correct...!!");
        }
  
        else 
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Incorrect Code...!!");
        }
    }
}


Output:

Code is correct...!!
