c# - How to convert a string array to an int array

Convert a String Array to an Int Array
The Array class provides methods for creating, manipulating, searching, and sorting arrays. The Array class is not part of the System.Collections namespaces. However, it is still considered a collection because it is based on the IList interface. An element is a value in an Array. The length of an Array is the total number of elements it can contain. The Array has a fixed capacity.

The following .net c# tutorial code demonstrates how we can convert a String Array to an Int Array. That means we will convert a String Array instance to an Int Array instance where all the elements of the Srting Array are the String representations of int values. But there is no direct method to convert a String Array object to an Int Array instance. So, we have to perform some jobs to get an Int Array from String Array elements.

At first, we have to initialize an empty instance of an Int Array. While initializing the Int Array instance, we will set the Int Array size exactly the same as the String Array size. After that, we will loop through the String Array elements. While iterating the String Array elements, we will set the Int Array’s elements value corresponding to the String Array elements.

While setting the Int Array elements value we have to convert the String value to Int instance. In this .net example code, we will use the Convert class ToInt32() method to convert a String instance to an integer instance. So finally, we will get an Int Array instance from the String Array elements.

The Convert class converts a base data type to another base data type. The Convert class ToInt32() method converts a specified value to a 32-bit signed integer.

The Convert class ToInt32(String) method overload converts the specified string representation of a number to an equivalent 32-bit signed integer. The Convert class ToInt32 (string? value) method overload has a parameter named value.

The value parameter is a string that contains the number to convert. The Convert class ToInt32(String) method returns a 32-bit signed integer that is equivalent to the number in value, or 0 if the value is null.

The Convert class ToInt32(string? value) method overload throws FormatException if the value does not consist of an optional sign followed by a sequence of digits (0 through 9). It also throws OverflowExceptionif the value represents a number that is less than Int32.MinValue or greater than Int32.MaxValue.

Restricting Jetpack Compose TextField to Numeric Input Only

Jetpack Compose has revolutionized Android development with its declarative approach, enabling developers to build modern, responsive UIs more efficiently. Among the many components provided by Compose, TextField is a critical building block for user input. However, ensuring that a TextField accepts only numeric input can pose challenges, especially when considering edge cases like empty fields, invalid characters, or localization nuances. In this blog post, we'll explore how to restrict a Jetpack Compose TextField to numeric input only, discussing both basic and advanced implementations. Why Restricting Input Matters Restricting user input to numeric values is a common requirement in apps dealing with forms, payment entries, age verifications, or any data where only numbers are valid. Properly validating input at the UI level enhances user experience, reduces backend validation overhead, and minimizes errors during data processing. Compose provides the flexibility to implement ...

jetpack compose - TextField remove underline

Compose TextField Remove Underline The TextField is the text input widget of android jetpack compose library. TextField is an equivalent widget of the android view system’s EditText widget. TextField is used to enter and modify text. The following jetpack compose tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can remove (actually hide) the underline from a TextField widget in an android application. We have to apply a simple trick to remove (hide) the underline from the TextField. The TextField constructor’s ‘colors’ argument allows us to set or change colors for TextField’s various components such as text color, cursor color, label color, error color, background color, focused and unfocused indicator color, etc. Jetpack developers can pass a TextFieldDefaults.textFieldColors() function with arguments value for the TextField ‘colors’ argument. There are many arguments for this ‘TextFieldDefaults.textFieldColors()’function such as textColor, disabledTextColor, backgroundColor, cursorC...

jetpack compose - Image clickable

Compose Image Clickable The Image widget allows android developers to display an image object to the app user interface using the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can show image objects to the Image widget from various sources such as painter resources, vector resources, bitmap, etc. Image is a very essential component of the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can change many properties of an Image widget by its modifiers such as size, shape, etc. We also can specify the Image object scaling algorithm, content description, etc. But how can we set a click event to an Image widget in a jetpack compose application? There is no built-in property/parameter/argument to set up an onClick event directly to the Image widget. This android application development tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can add a click event to the Image widget and make it clickable. Click event of a widget allow app users to execute a task such as showing a toast message by cli...
