When I make a function to return an array with the correct results. Instead of giving me the correct results, I get as result System.Int32[]. Anyone an idea why this is?
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine(MultiplyByLength(new int[] {2,3,1,0}));
}
public static int[] MultiplyByLength(int[] arr)
{
return arr.Select(x => x * arr.Length).ToArray();
}
}
You need to format it some how. An array doesn't have a ToString()
override that knows how you want to format your type (int[]
) to a string
, in such cases it just returns the type name (which is what you are seeing)
foreach(var item in MultiplyByLength(new int[] {2,3,1,0})
Console.WriteLine(item);
or
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(Environment.NewLine, MultiplyByLength(new int[] {2,3,1,0}));
or
Console.WriteLine(string.Join(",", MultiplyByLength(new int[] {2,3,1,0}));
