Fill one row of a two dimensional array with a one dimensional array
I am creating a 2D dataset. I would like to set the first row of this array to the contents of a one-dimensional array with the appropriate number of columns, for example:
private string[] GetHeaders() {
return new string[] { "First Name", "Last Name", "Phone" };
}
private void BuildDataArray(IEnumerable<Person> rows) {
var data = new string[rows.Count() + 1, 3];
// This statement is invalid, but it roughly what I want to do:
data[0] = GetHeaders();
var i = 1;
foreach (var row in rows) {
data[i, 0] = row.First;
data[i, 1] = row.Last;
data[i, 2] = row.Phone;
i++;
}
}
Basically, I want an easier way to populate the first row, rather than iterating over each element as I do with elements rows
.
Is there a C # idiom for doing this?
