Parameter Arrays in C#

Parameter Arrays in C#. In this article we will see how to use Parameter Arrays with an example.
 


Parameter Arrays

In normal function we can allow fixed number of function arguments like

Int Add(int x,int y )
{
      Return x+y;
}

But what if number of augments are not fixed we want that user allowed to pass as much arguments he want to entered are allowed .In this case the parameter arrays comes in handy..

We can define param array in Function argument by keyword "params" followed by <type name> and then array name.

We will make a add function that will allow as many arguments as user wants to input in function

class Program
{
        static int Add(params int[] nums)
        {
            int total=0;
            foreach(int i in nums)
            {
                total = total+i;
            }
            return total;
        }

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Parameter Array Function Testing ...");

            int result=0;

            /* function allowing 3 arguments */
            result = Add(10, 10, 10);
            Console.WriteLine("Result for 3 Prameter :{0}", result);

            /* function allowing 4 arguments */
            result = Add(10, 10, 10, 10);

            Console.WriteLine("Result for 4 Prameter :{0}", result);

            /* function allowing 5 arguments */
            result = Add(10, 10, 10, 10,10);

            Console.WriteLine("Result for 5 Prameter :{0}", result);


            /* function is also allowing whole array too */
            int[] x = { 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10 };

            Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;
            result = Add(x);
            Console.WriteLine("Result for Array Summation Prameter :{0}", result);

            Console.ReadKey();
}

Best Practices No 5: - Detecting .NET application memory leaks
Memory leaks in .NET application have always being programmer's nightmare. Memory leaks are biggest problems when it comes to production servers. Productions servers normally need to run with least down time. Memory leaks grow slowly and after sometime they bring down the server by consuming huge chunks of memory. Maximum time people reboot the system, make it work temporarily and send a sorry note to the customer for the downtime. ... Read More
.NET Best Practice No: 1:- Detecting High Memory consuming functions in .NET code
One of the important factors for performance degradation in .NET code is memory consumption. Many developers just concentrate on execution time to determine performance bottle necks in a .NET application. Only measuring execution time does not clearly give idea of where the performance issue resides. Ok, said and done one of the biggest task is to understand which function, assembly or class has consumed how much memory. In this tutorial we will see how we can find which functions consume how much memory. This article discusses the best practices involved using CLR profiler for studying memory allocation....

LINQ has been criticized by many early adopters for its performance issues. Well if you are just going to drag and drop using DBML code generator I am sure you will land up in to mess. Try doing this make a simple LINQ to SQL project using DBML and see your SQL profiler, I am sure you will never like to touch DBML code generator again. ... Read More
