Does Index of Array Exist
I've inherited some code at work that has a really bad smell. I'm hoping to find the most painless solution possible.
Is there a way to check if some arbitrary number is a valid element in an array?
Example - I need to check if array[25] exists.
Preferably I would prefer to do this without doing a foreach() through the array to found the rows.
Is there any way to do this, or am I stuck with foreach loop?
Solution 1:
Test the length
int index = 25;
if(index < array.Length)
{
//it exists
}
Solution 2:
You can use LINQ to achieve that too:
var exists = array.ElementAtOrDefault(index) != null;
