I want an array to contain strings, floats and ints that can be accessed via an index key.
I have an example in Lua how you would do but I don't know how you do it in C#
bookArray = [];
bookArray[1] =
{
Name = "Book 1";
Price = 50;
WPP = 374;
Pages = 42;
}
You may create a class and use List<MyClass>
class MyClass
{
public string Name {get;set;}
public double Price {get;set;}
public int Pages {get;set;}
}
Here is the list:
List<MyClass> values = new List<MyClass>();
Adding item
values.Add(new MyClass(){Name = "Book 1", Pages = 42, Price=50.0});
Insert at specific index:
values.Insert(0,new MyClass(){Name = "Book 2", Pages = 432, Price=10.0});
Retrieve at specific index:
MyClass theClass = values[1];
Foo[] foo = new Foo[10]. This is why you're better off using List<Foo> as you don't need to worry about that sort of thing
If you are ok with your inner type being immutable, you could do this:
var ar = new[] {
new { Name = "Book 1", Price = 50, WPP = 374, Pages = 42 },
new { Name = "Book 2", Price = 55, WPP = 220, Pages = 129 }
};
Which is about as close as you can come to the Lua definition
