C# Passing Arrays to Functions
In C#, you can pass arrays as parameters to functions. You can pass a pointer to an array to a function by specifying the array name without an index.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to pass an array to a function:
Example
using System;
namespace ArrayApplication
{
class MyArray
{
double getAverage(int[] arr, int size)
{
int i;
double avg;
int sum = 0;
for (i = 0; i < size; ++i)
{
sum += arr[i];
}
avg = (double)sum / size;
return avg;
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
MyArray app = new MyArray();
/* An int array with 5 elements */
int [] balance = new int[]{1000, 2, 3, 17, 50};
double avg;
/* Pass the pointer of the array as a parameter */
avg = app.getAverage(balance, 5);
/* Output the returned value */
Console.WriteLine("Average value is: {0} ", avg);
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}
When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following result:
Average value is: 214.4
