Question

I want to generate 500 chars in an easy way without doing:

String range = "0123456789101112131415..."; 

I want to have an exact string of 500 chars.

How can I do that?

Enumerable.Range(0,500).Select( c => c.ToString());

does not help because

the number 123 is 3 chars not 1 and therein is the problem.

Answer 1

If you don’t care which characters then you could just use the String constructor:

String s = new String('0', 500);

This will give you a string with 500 “0”s. Or for 500 X’s:

String s = new String('X', 500);
