Creating an array of sequential numbers C# with Example
LINQ provides a method that makes it easy to create a collection filled with sequential numbers. For example, you can declare an array which contains the integers between 1 and 100. The Enumerable.Range method allows us to create sequence of integer numbers from a specified start position and a number of elements. The method takes two arguments: the starting value and the number of elements to generate. Enumerable.Range(int start, int count) Note that count cannot be negative. Usage: int[] sequence = Enumerable.Range(1, 100).ToArray(); This will generate an array containing the numbers 1 through 100 ([1, 2, 3, ..., 98, 99, 100]). Because the Range method returns an IEnumerable, we can use other LINQ methods on it: int[] squares = Enumerable.Range(2, 10).Select(x => x * x).ToArray(); This will generate an array that contains 10 integer squares starting at 4: [4, 9, 16, ..., 100, 121].
