Question

I have an array that has specified colors like this,

Object[] l_colarray = new Object[13] { Colors.Black,Colors.Blue,Colors.Brown,Colors.Cyan,Colors.DarkGray,
                Colors.Gray,Colors.Green,Colors.LightGray,Colors.Magenta,Colors.Orange,Colors.Purple,Colors.Red,Colors.White}; 

How do i select an index,(objectatindex:i, was used in iOS). Kindly help me with this.

Thanks,

It’s not really clear what you mean by “select an index”. Do you mean simply:

object color = l_colarray[index];

? Note that if all the values are Color values you’d be better off with:

Color[] colors = { Colors.Black, Colors.Blue, Colors.Brown, Colors.Cyan,
    Colors.DarkGray, Colors.Gray, Colors.Green, Colors.LightGray,
    Colors.Magenta, Colors.Orange,Colors.Purple,Colors.Red,Colors.White };

...

Color color = colors[index];

Notes:

• When you’re initializing an array variable in the same statement as its declaration, you don’t need the “new TypeName[]” part
• You don’t need to specify the size when you use “new TypeName[] { … }”
